She's liberal, female, a minority, a natural born citizen but born in Thailand so there's the "immigrant" storyline as well, a decorated and disabled war veteran. Sounds like the ultimate amalgamation and someone Trump would have a very hard time attacking, and when he does it would probably actually backfire for once.

Yes, I have mentioned her and people have been skeptical. She may have a hard time standing out in a crowd of Gillibrand, Booker, Warren, Harris if that is the field.

Oh a chance to bring up the VA debacle on a national stage?

My main concern is that she seems boring. If she can convince me she's not, and she runs, she probably has my vote.

She is all sorts of boring, but that just may be what the country is looking for in 2020.

Maybe, but it's not a question of "Is our country ready for a Boring-American?" but rather "Is she exciting enough to get people out to the polls?"

A chance for it to not work, again?

Top connected with the Chicago machine imo. Definitely a candidate that looks far better on paper than in reality.

It's a legitimate scandal, Kirk just didn't have the ability to use it, he became very gaffe prone after his stroke. On a national stage that thing sticks bad.
