She double-majored in International Relations and Econ. Not an easy feat (and I think it was Magna Cum Laude, too) . I tried to get into BU and didn't. I think the orange slime bought his way into Penn after a lackluster couple of years at Fordham---amazing what daddy's money can do. I know at least one of his profs said he was the dumbest student he ever had. So I'll stack up her grades against his any day of the week.

Come on, boyo, let's see them! I dare ya! Hell, I triple-dog-dare ya!

And her experience as a bartender probably gives her a great deal of "street smarts" as well.
