| 8. I only saw clips of it, but she sounded very odd to me |
|
She seemed to have trouble speaking, sounded like she'd had a stroke or some other kind of brain impairment, not to mention that she didn't even answer most of the questions. But I doubt she knew what to say. If I was in Nevada, that would have done it for me, if I didn't already think she was nuts. I don't see how anyone can take her seriously, her views are so outrageous, but then I'm in NY, and we have Carl Paladino...  |
