Negative publicity?
WHAT negative publicity?

Boy, it just keeps getting better and better -

US Senate candidate/wackjob Katherine Harris received a grand jury subpoena from federal investigators and concealed the fact from top campaign advisers hired to help her deflect negative publicity, her former campaign manager has disclosed

The discovery culminated in the latest round of staff departures, in mid-July, Glenn Hodas, Harris' third and most recent campaign manager, said. Those resignations included Hodas and a campaign spokesman.

The subpoena apparently was issued for campaign records as part of a Justice Department investigation of Harris' dealings with defense contractor Mitchell Wade, who pleaded guilty to bribing a California congressman and funneling $32,000 in illegal campaign contributions to Harris in 2004.
