56. I'll certainly give her this: she cuts right through the RW bullshit

And we need that, now more than ever. She is definitely not from the sternly worded letter school of political discourse. Of course, the RWers are all over her with their attacks. I fully expect to see Republican campaign fliers next year with unflattering pictures of her all over them, connecting Democrats to her. Why? Republicans are scared to death of her. She is appealing to young folks, and empowering them. If that translates into young people voting, it will be a massacre come election time.
