My impression - possibly incorrect, but let's just assume it's not - is that she's from a solidly Demoncratic district. If we assume (and I revolt at doing this, but let's indulge the vile notion for the moment) the election of a Demoncrat from her district is a foregone conclusion, aren't we better off with a completely incompetent, blithering moron Demoncrat like her?
I think you'd get different answers to that question depending on whether you asked Machiavelli, or one of the Founding Fathers... but I'm not sure where *I* stand at all, in this day and age...
If she wasn't potentially treasonous; if she actually represented her district as opposed to some ill-defined district in the Arab world; if she wasn't such an ass with an ass for a father, I'd probably agree with you.
Biggest problem is that I honestly find myself wondering if she's one of these leaks that has been discussed of late. I don't think any of us want a potential enemy sympathiser in our Congress - especially with us about to escalate the war over there to a much more intense level.
