1. I'm not her biggest fan, but she is dealing with those belligerents well
having the questions written down, etc. It doesn't stop them from yelling at her, but it keeps it from getting completely anarchic.

3. She is having one today as well?
She is having anothre one tomorrow and I will be there. JUst watched a bit, she seems to have things pretty much under control. She does not always vote the way I like it, but that's her right. She is feisty and thinks on her own.

7. Her last line summed it all up:
Edited on Mon Aug-10-09 03:53 PM by mikelgb
"Take care of yourselves and your family"


and another gem: If someone bets you that in our lifetimes we will have a completely government run healthcare system, TAKE THAT BET!

sigh

8. The crowd roared when someone asked about the birth certificate
McCaskill just replied "I just don't get it..." to the children in the room with their jaws agape.

9. I only saw a small portion of it, but she sure didn't school that idiot woman
Edited on Mon Aug-10-09 04:50 PM by Phx_Dem
who said Pelosi called anyone who opposed health care reform a Nazi. McCaskill didn't even set her straight. She said "I agree with you that the opposition is not manufactured," and just left the woman's statement that Pelosi called anyone a Nazi hanging out there.

Gee, thanks Claire. Very helpful.
