can be full of so much hubris and arrogance that they think they should be president.

She is a complete dumbass. She shouldn't be managing a shoe store much less serving in the United States Senate or thinking about being president.

depending on how big her family is.
Some lucky kid is going to get the Joni memoire for HS graduation, the lucky duck.

I can't wait to hear all the thought that went into the "Squeal" awards and just how much time she and her staff spend on it. Must be upwards of 100 micro seconds.

I have no idea if she is will run for president but when I saw the story it was my fear. Her accomplishments are confined to being elected to higher offices and repeating talking points.

She is very good at running to any camera Moscow Mitch is in front of so that she can be in the shot too.

I'm wondering how many full-color pictures there are of Ernst castrating hogs. She must have very sharp teeth.

But considering who is in the white house now, I guess anything is possible.

Unfortunately for her, she has he personality of a moldy washcloth.
