I'll give you that she has some past real world experience. But in the last 6 years she has been hip deep with Washington. With what has come out of Washington lately makes me wonder if the water isn't posioned or something up there.
You mean like "Love Canal"? Or was that from 92-2000? Look, Washington DC lifestyle is definitely self-selecting as far as temperaments. Most down-to-earth people couldn't stand it for long. She has been there six years but at least they have been Bush's six years. I think she is like the other self-confident women Bush keeps around him. If he is grounded, and I think he is, the people around him have a better chance of staying grounded. All I'm saying is maybe we don't know her enough yet to make such dire predictions of her abilities. I have a hard time thinking Bush is simply rewarding a loyal friend with such an important lifetime position. I believe he knows her better than anyone here on this forum. Of course, I will stand corrected if it turns out like a lot of you are predicting.
