There is a sense of fed up with incumbents. Especially those willing to compromise with democrats.

She is likely the wisest person in the GOP now

Oh, I guess that means we have one more than you Democrats do.

Nah we have a lot of people who would be the wisest person in the GOP if they joined up

She is likely the wisest person in the GOP now

At least she will have an excuse if she ever acts like an adolescent, which is more than Pelosi, Reid or Dear Leader can say.

Really? When you have people saying the Constitution is 400 years old? Or that the Koch Brothers cause climate change? Rrriiight...

If she was a democrat she would be on every talk show in the Country but sadly for her she is a republican and the mainstream media is at war with republican women no matter how brilliant or articulate they are. You almost gotta laugh when the he smarmy source whines that she has "never been the head of a family". I guess West Va. has interesting qualifications to run for office since she wasn't even old enough to vote for herself.

Man... what a mess that will be. All that's wrong with the Democratic platform on women and blacks will come back to gut them in that election. I'll be watching it with interest. She'll win, if she plays her cards right.

You have people saying the American Revolution was fought in the 16th century and that the climate has been exactly the same for the Earth's entire 6,000 year existence

And? You act as if you don't have your own loons, bub. That makes you a hypocrite.

Move along.

I won't vote for any party that doesn't want to advance America's edge in science and keep us a first world power.

The democrats suck...No question about it.

 

[LeftofLeft]

She is likely the wisest person in the GOP now

- does she need a TelePrompTer to speak?
- does she recognize the US has 50 states, not 57?
- will she unseal her grades?
- does she believe energy prices must necessarily escalate?

Maybe she can be President.

We need to invest more in infrastructure, science, math, books, rainbows, puppies...

I'll bet that she's more an adult than all of the above! At least she hasn't been corrupted by D.C.

Better than investing in someone else's cattle ranch; drones; failed corporations (in the form of bailouts); and expensive shopping trips to Africa.
