Didn’t McCaskill fall into her plumb sinecure by playing on people’s sympathies after her husband died; and wasn’t that senate seat basically HANDED to her?
If so, and I think that’s the case, she never earned it fair and square; and was not qualified for it, anyway.
Something acquired undeservedly is usually held in low esteem, compensurate with the low level of diligence, if any, expended in earning it; of which she expended none. Not that one could notice, anyway. IMHO.
I could tell you a lot about her, as a friend of mine was a coworker at her first job as an attorney.
