and love that the Democratic Party wanted her to do the rebuttal......she hit it out of the park. She’s a natural, she’s got the heritage, she’s who everyone is going to be talking about.....fantastic rebuttal.

One of the best rebuttals they can remember.

She connects with people. The nation got to see what we saw in Georgia. If not for dirty tricks by the gop, she would be our governor.
