1. i saw her townhall deal on C-SPAN and she was AWESOME
she answered tough questions without so much as a stutter or an 'uhm' or an 'eh' or a shrug. she has as much or more of a handle on what's going on than anyone else involved, i think. it was obvious that after about 30 minutes she had the respect of everyone in that room because she dodged nothing, absolutely nothing. it's a shame she'll be relegated to second lady status, because she is a powerful and intelligent person and i'd like to hear her ideas and give her some free rein of her own.
