why #2?
she's better than most of the #1 spot candidates
KBH pingage
Don't hate her in the least. She's just unqualified.
i like her...
ACU Lifetime of 91, for those of you rushing headlong to post that she's a RINO.
She hangs with Hillary & friends at Vital Voices -- www.vitalvoices.org -- an organization that pretends to do all kinds of wonderful things to stop trafficking worldwide, but spends piles of money pushing legalized prostitution and throwing condoms around third world countries.
She also was not the most helpful person when it came to judicial nominations. Ask Leon Holmes sometime about who held up his nomination and why. Silly man had the gall to write an article for his church, with his wife, about biblical principles of marriage. KBH had kittens over it.
Sorry, I don't dig feminists.

Just a question, but did these people always ask themselves rhetorical questions and then answer them? Or did that start when Rumsfeld started doing it?
What? To hear the local Freepers talk, Texas is the most hard-ass balls-to-the-wall conservative state.
What's up with that boys?
The only problem I have with her is she would not be the strongest pro life candidate.
KBH is a dim bulb and an open borders one at that. There is no there, there. All she has is the strong will and drive to become a US Senator. In no way is she capable
Ya'll want someone from the South? Someone who is a leader in the fight against illegal immigration? Someone who is strong on Homeland Security and the war in Iraq?
Sessions is our man...

"Conservative stands like her unwavering support for McCain-Feingold?
You got a strange definition of "conservative," sport.
God help us if that dimwit were ever in the White House.
Second in line would be almost as bad.
If only she'd see the light on life.
I've written her, visited her office in Washington, met with her staff and even confronted her at public appearances. She does not and will not stand for the right of all innocent human beings to not be killed. Evidently, only those human beings who can hire lobbyists are deserving of protection.
She also repeatedly ignored my invitations to events surrounding the National Advisory Committee on Violence Against Women, when I was a member. (The letters in reply from her office are always canned, pre-written responses that show me that no one really read them - most had my name wrong.) (I typed or called - it wasn't my handwriting.)
She cannot flaunt the Platform of the Republican Party by advocating for abortion, cloning, and expanded (and ever expanding) destructive embryonic stem cell research and continue to be "the most popular Texas Republican." Instead, she'll just end up being another Democrat with and (R) behind her name. In other words, a RINO.
As a Texan who votes for her in the Senate (by marking a straight GOP ticket), I say...
NO!
She is not rock solid in enough ways where we need rock solid. She's good on some things, bad on others.
She is far too clubby with Hillary, DiFi, Snowe, Collins, Patty Murray, Babs McCulsky, Lincoln, Landrieu et al. These women have made a pact never to attack each other or campaign against each other.
She is not national command material, in my opinion.
She is too old (as I view it).
She is maddeningly slow and halting when she speaks. She seems to need cue cards and a speed reading/speaking course.
