Agreed, absolutely. whathehell Nov 2014 #26

Good. Then go with the "not infallible" alternative in my post. merrily Nov 2014 #34

The implication is that she was too weak/scared to stand up to the other Senators... brooklynite Nov 2014 #35

My Reply 34 to you already covered that "point." merrily Nov 2014 #36
