Jed, my only beef with her is her incredible arrogance to think she is qualified to be president. In my opinion she is a clueless ignoramus who has no idea how many women she turned off with that silly winking routine.
I do admire her zest for life and her love of her state. I don't hate republicans, in fact two of my best friends are bent that way. One of them was an only child who admits that he doesn't want to share anything with anyone, and the other is a former Sheriff from Florida who voted against the 4 cent tax on beer to help pay for uninsured children's medical bills.
Those are not isolated cases. In my experience, selfishness and greed seem to be common among republicans. I don't know you well enough to say, but I doubt you are that way.
