Bright woman in New York...
My daughter just sent me this link - I thought I'd share it.
It demonstrates what we already know.

One to watch definitely - she’s extremely bright and an excellent questioner

I think she’s a breath of fresh air in American politics. Seen as somewhat radical in her political style, and isn’t afraid to stir up the Dems as well as the Reps.
She’s worth following on Twitter.

I thought so ffinnochio and maryeliza54 Im going to read up about her. I think she'll stir things up a bit though.
