I like her whole message and persona. Plus she's kinda hot.
What is it with all the women conservatives in the last ten years. They seem to be the beautiful ones and the libbers the hags. Seems it was the other way around 20 years ago.

Well, I dont dislike her and much of what she says resonates with me, but in another vid, she says that as Mayor of Saratoga Springs, Utah, she cut the entire budget except for public safety...to me that means no libraries, no parks, no schools(?), nothing that demonstrates a desire to invest in the future of a community which to me is vital. Its like everyone is supposed to fend for themselves in every instance and its just not that cut and dry imo.
In an ideal world where no one got sick or old and had to stop working, she would be perfect, but alas my world is not perfect.
I'm not a conservative I think her personal story is great. She might make a decent run for Congress.
The bigger question if she has aspirations for statewide office will White Republican voters in Utah accept a Black woman as a candidate and especially one in a marriage with a White man? Now that is a REALLY interesting question to me.
However the whole "Rising Star" thing is a bit over the top. Let her win a congressional or statewide election THEN she'll be a rising star.

Still, I am impressed by her.
In cutting that budget was it to stave off bankruptcy similar to the cascade of cities we are starting to see in California?
I dont know the answer I'm just trying to understand your state confliction.

Yeah that 'rising star' bit may have been over the top, but if she wins that will send ripples across the country precisely because of what you pointed out, she is a Black woman from New York who was able to win over a overwhelmingly white electorate in one of the most conservative congessional districts in the country.

Do you think it is possible just once to look past the white guy won't support the black guy or in this case gal issue? The race card game is getting a little old. A bigger problem might be how hard it is for blacks to accept black conservatives or for libs to accept black conservatives for that matter.
