I thought if leadership wanted a freshman Senator they'd tap Gardner or SMC. Guess not...

I look forward to her promising to castrate senior Democrats unless they stop fluoridating the water.

Wow. I was not expecting that. I would tap Capito or McSally to give it over Ernst any day...

Oh gawsh. Maybe they're hoping to rehabilitate her national image? I think she is capable of more if speaking prepared, and Atlas underrates her. Or more likely, they are just getting someone dumb to speak to rural Midwesterners.

Wonderful news! I was worried she'd keep her head low and work on being a good senator, but it looks like she's ready to go full Ted Cruz and become a one-termer.

Obama should spend the whole address talking about sustainable development and climate change.  See if he can bait her into going full "Agenda 21!!!11!" kookaburra.

If an "outsider" says extreme, insane things, they become demonized and their political career is dead. If an establishment figure says extreme, insane things, they're such a rising star that they're tapped to give the State of the Union response two weeks into their career.

Such is the state of the ever-changing GOP.

Underestimate her at your risk. She is a very good talker.
