U.S. House candidate Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera has a long list of accomplishments to bolster her campaign in Florida. But she is perhaps best known for claiming that she was abducted by space aliens as a child.

Rodriguez Aguilera is a longshot in the race for the Miami-area seat being vacated by retiring Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Yet last weekend, the Miami Herald endorsed her for the GOP nomination in the Tuesday primary out of a field of nine candidates.

I don’t discount the possibility of Aliens visiting Earth.

On the other hand every one of the abduction stories I have seen are ludicrous.

Thats it! Youve cracked the case Scooby! SHE was never returned to Earth. Its a Middler/alien hybrid with HER memories downloaded. As much as Id like to hear her stand in congress and talk about anal probes, maybe shes not the safest candidate for the well being of Earth. You my friend should be on a MIB team.

The tall blondes are referred to in alien lore as Aryans.

There was an influx of them into America in the late 1940s. Difficult, but not impossible to find Aryan aliens in the US these days.

Looks like this will be her “I’m not a witch” moment.

“She looks like Bette Midler.”

You can say that again!

I think her abduction will definitely define her as the loser of this race.
