She IS a political lightening rod. She is damaged goods that the Left and the MSM will use daily against us if we pick her as our candidate.
A clear illustration of this is the 2008 campaign and the relentless media assaults on her. Considering that, do you think that this time around they will reverse their strategy and make her look good?
Of course this is a logical assessment of what our side can expect from her, if we are so stupid as to pick her to represent our side. Under the circumstances, this may too much logical thought for you to grasp all at once. So, fire away with your usual knee jerk rhetoric and insults that this forum has learned to expect.
