100% agreed.
And, truthfully, I cannot understand the fear people cite about being polarizing. Bush was polarizing and he won 51% of the vote. These same people contend Hillary will win (something I dispute as inevitable), yet she is polarizing. Why the doube standard for Harris?
Truth is that Mel was a weak candidate. Poor name recognition. He wasn't very confidant in debates. As a Senator he comes across far better than one on one with the opposition during the election, but he squeaked out a win. If Mel can win, a candidate the base already knows and likes certainly can.
I wanted her to run in '04. She held off at request of the W.H. This is her turn. Certainly she'll have no trouble raising a war chest, she has helped many other Republicans fill theirs.
And I look forward to watching the Dems in the Senate absolutely lose it the minute they see her face on the floor. LOL
Please see my post #94.......PING
What a sweet dream it would be to see the woman the Dems vilified and tried to destroy......in the Senate!
