4. I just checked her out
You should understand that being english a lot of the names mentioned here are new to me.

I see that back in 2002 she called globalization a "cruel hoax".

My kind of woman that - what a hero. Yes - she is pretty.

5. Too Cool!
That is wonderful to know! I'm glad to hear that she's "staying strong" despite all the vicious right wing wolves on her heels. :applause:

6. That the wolves try to intimidate her is evidence they fear her.
You have to be tough to be an effective Democrat.

15. Good for you. Someone who met her told me (Sat. night) that she's much
smaller in person than she appears on the tv. She mentioned that in photos, etc., that Rep. McKinney appears taller than she actually is. So about how tall is she?

22. I'm envious, but happy for you!
not too many politician's hands I'd be willing to shake - Cynthia's is certainly one tho.
She makes me feel there is a bit of hope left.
