I remember her rude and inappropriate words that night... Can't believe anyone voted for her.

As for Mean Jean, she should just go back to that toxic place she came out of and stay there permanently.

Other than he is a doctor and Iraq war vet. I am praying for a democratic pickup of her seat, but that may be difficult with a saner republican running. Lets hope the man that beat her is as nuts as she is and that shows up fast.

Odd, because I thought they'd be clinging to Schmidt like a bad suit.
He's a combat surgeon who became a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army Reserve. That's all I know so far.
