GOP to Katherine Harris in May: "Your campaign faces irreparable damage."

"Katherine, though it causes us much anguish, we have determined that your campaign faces irreparable damage. We feel that we have no other choice but to revoke our support. The polls tell us that no matter how you run this race, you will not be successful in beating Bill Nelson."
--Confidential May 7 letter to Harris from Florida Republican Party Chairman Carole Jean Jordan, obtained today by AP.

She went ahead anyway, of course. A recent poll has Harris comfortably ahead in the GOP primary race trailing Nelson by 37 percentage points in a general election head-to-head.
