There's been a lot worse...a lot worse. I don't see what was so bad. She was so terrible she knocked out a political powerhouse inside the party. She was very popular on the political talk show circuit for quite some time. You seem to accept the tarnishing of a candidate by idiots like Karl Rove.
I would have voted for her in a second over Castle because the last thing we need is another far left leaning Senator in our caucus. We can handle moderates but not leftists.
That said, your point has nothing to do with this issue. Once again, the bureaucracy is allowing private information of citizens to get out. This never happened pre-Obama. It was not even a thought that the IRS was capable of releasing private info. Our side cannot win if the cards are stacked against us with the government infrastructure being able to find and leak private emails, phone calls, tax records, etc. There is always going to be an activist leftist who can grab data to destroy any person. Starting with the state of Ohio leaking Joe the Plumbers info after his taped conversation with Obama.
I loved her until she did that stupid “I am not witch” video. Rove had nothing to do with that mess!
