I think Elise is one of the "chosen ones" and they have been slowly working for a while to build her up.

Chosen by who? The GOP establishment? That would be my fear.

She's not the best at all from our perspective but another woman who may be better will not be pushed forward at this time.

Why not? Isn't that the question we should be asking?

Yep chosen by the establishment. That's our lot. How do we change it?

I agree with your perspective. I'm just resigned to it - at least for this topic. Taking down Cheney would be so lovely.
