Harris clarifies: When I said that voting against Christians is voting for Satan, I meant to say that I have at least one Jew on staff.

Answering bewildered criticism with a similarly bewildering non-sequitur, Harris’ office issued a “clarification” this weekend that gives a little context to statements (”If you’re not electing Christians, then in essence you are going to legislate sin”) that seemed pretty clear to begin with. In a couple paragraphs, we learn:

• Harris campaign manager Bryan Rudnick is a Jew.

• “In Congress, Katherine Harris has consistently supported pro-Israel legislation.”
• “As Harris frequently reminds voters in her campaign speeches for the U.S. Senate, she is committed to standing by Israel.”

So, to sum up, electing Christians is still urgent and key, but you’re allowed to have a couple Jews working for you (and we’re totally cool with that country they have).

The full statement is after the jump — see also Kitty’s new campaign ad, in which we learn, repeatedly, that she is “gutsy.” A “gutsy fighter” with “guts” a-plenty. A pair of “guts” that just won’t quit, as they say.

Our deepest condolences to Tom DeLay, who ended the portion of his political career that relied on convincing people to vote for him in order to embark on that much more lucrative portion in which he just makes a shitload of money and exercises roughly the same amount of power and influence (depending, of course, on his legal situation — but we don’t think a little jail time will really stop the checks from flowing in for work in defense of Christianity).
