Reply #19: Nope, haven't met her yet [View All]

I've always been impressed by her, though, even before she became Senator. The district she represented in upstate NY was not an easy one for any Democrat, and she was elected twice there. She seems to have all the tools, although I think she'd be considered a little too centrist here on DU. For the district she used to represent, though, you had to be a bit centrist to stand a chance, and she did her best to satisfy all her constituents, not just some. Now that she's Senator, she has a chance to lean a little more to the left, and that's good.
