Ugh, it's going to get pretty crowded in here when it's all said and done.

Her history of campaign contributions, dating back to 1990, has included both Republicans and Democrats, as she donated to Sen. Joe Lieberman in 2006, and Rahm Emanuel in 2008.

She also donated to the Republican Majority for Choice in 2006, a Political Action Committee favoring abortion rights and the 'Big Tent' appeal of the GOP.

She originally claimed that she graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in education. She later admitted that she actually majored in French.

Oh what the hell....can we never catch a break? This woman is probably worth a fortune and will be able to self-finance her campaign in the millions if she wanted to.... :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

She may have money, but in any debate regarding the economy she will be humiliated.

I'm thinking she's going to have a hard time getting the Republican nomination, having given money to Rahm Emanuel and Joe Lieberman.

We should try. I know that if she really wanted to ruin Schiff, she should bodyslam him on national television. Given the childish nature of Americans, nobody would dare vote for a man that got treated like a punk. Better learn them throat punches, Peter!!!
