No, she is not.
But then again neither is Booker worthy of being a Senator.

It’s as predictable as it is sickening. Sickening will be at its highest when she is confirmed by the Senate.

Booker, a Black Democrat from New Jersey, said he could no longer hold back his emotionCory Booker is a drama queen of the first order. He can never hold back his emotions. When he called her "Sister" today, the schmaltz was thick and deep.
