My nephew used to be on her Staff and spoke very highly of her. That's good enough for me.

Sometimes in politics you make mistakes or take a position that will cause ire. She's done that once or twice but overall she's a fine Senator. I'd be proud to have her as my Senator.

I don't think I heard her speaking out much this election cycle. I know she wasn't up for re-election, but I don't see that as a reason to be quiet.
