This needs to viral. Gov. Rindell just listened to it and said she was brilliant.

3. She put the stimulus package and described it

At a high school level economics class level.
Describing why you need to spend in order to stimulate.

I'm an infrastructure, energy and health care advocate on this stimulus bill.

Everything else is secondary and won't make the change

2. I love the "stimulometer" and use of "soup kitchens" at
the low end of the meter and "paychecks" at the other.

Her coverage of Pres. Obama saying that the GOP is complaining about it "being a spending bill" -- Oh course it's a spending bill! Obama says. What do you think "stimulus" is? That was awesome. Obama is mocking the stupidity of the GOP.

8. The Congressional oversight chairwomen for the TARP

Sec. Paulson was a crook, that's what she has found out.
