Claire Levy - still not getting it
When asked what her reaction was to Stevens resignation, Levy said, Its best that we all just move on and attend to the business we have.
This may actually be the most damaging outcome for Claire because it lets her think this is behind her while she still has not spoken to the issue. And her ending request to move on once again comes across as arrogant and unwilling to speak to the issue at hand.
Again, we will have to see how the next few weeks play out.
Will Claire finally make a statement about her opinion of the land grab?
Will this story stay front and center for awhile? Will a credible opponent run against Claire in the election?
But as of now I think her seat remains very much in play in the upcoming election. And if the Republicans nominate a strong candidate (hint - Bob Greenlee), then its a real race.

The point has to be made that her being in the House will only be to benefit her buddies like Edie Stevens. If I was her opponent I would make big hay of that, that Claire would only stand in the way of fixing these crappy laws and enabling corruption by her friends.
Edie Stevens' name deserves to be synonymous with "unethical" -- like Benedict Arnold's name means "traitor."
