They run in the same social circles and look after their own by giving them the highest paying jobs. It's not about merit, it's about who they know. And it shows.

She made a face when she brought up John Kerry but provided no other reason for her feelings.

Although you make it better than I do, she should not be near a microphone or any mass media without having that disclaimer (the one you mention).

C-SPAN showed it live in its entirety, about fifteen minutes longer.
