Do you think she has a shot in the Republican primaries? I'm hoping she doesn't run and ends up backing somebody worth backing. She has a lot of pull with Republican voters who don't think intelligence is an important quality for a president to have. For example, I showed my dad the Couric interview where she couldn't answer a simple question about fiscal policy....


... and he said they try to "spring these questions on her and catch her off guard" or something to that effect. I consider my dad somewhat intelligent. I think that a lot of Republicans are drawn by her personality and "morals" that they forget a president should have a certain degree of intelligence and knowledge about the policies a president deals with. The question in that video obviously wasn't a trick question. She should have been able to answer that shit in her sleep.

My point is I think if she doesn't run she could potentially have a positive impact by backing someone who is good like this Mitch Daniels or someone else who wouldn't otherwise have a shot.
