Did a "Killer Clown from Space" receive Miami Herald's GOP endorsement?

.


You decide? Or, perhaps she's a friend of Harley Quinn? This is a tough one.




The Miami Herald has endorsed a Republican candidate running for Congress in Florida’s 27th District that says she was abducted by aliens when she was 7-years-old.

.
“Last year, she told the Miami Herald — and several Spanish-language media outlets — that she believes in extra-terrestrials,” the endorsement stated. “She says when she was 7, she was taken aboard a spaceship and, throughout her life, she has communicated telepathically with the beings, which remind her of the concrete Christ in Brazil.

They were quick to explain that her secret telepathic conversations with aliens were “non-issues” because as a former official and businesswoman she is a professional.

The race is to fill a seat left vacant by Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL). In the Democratic Primary, The Herald endorsed Democrat David Richardson, who spent 10 years at The Herald and as program director for the Knight Foundation.

So the Herald can endorse any GOP clown or alien it prefers.

The district has a sharp pro-blue partisan index, to the point it is often at the very top of the lists of districts most like to flip.

Donna Shalala has been the heavy favorite -- and I voted for her -- but recently her primary lead over Haggman and Richardson has been slipping
