When McConnell shut her down during her reading of Coretta Scott King's words. That was a terrific example of "she persisted." When I took that "Who do you side with" test, she came in first for me and then-Senator Harris, who I didn't know much about yet, came in fourth, so I knew that she was an excellent choice, too. And I agree, we've needed a woman for a very long time - just look at the job Nanny Pelosi has done! It totally boggles the mind!
