#10  I'm certain someone equally as vapid will be elected in her stead.

Hey now, be fair.

#6  ..well, good. Maybe one of those Silicon Oligarchs can waste some of his/her own money to buy the seat rather than pull the strings from behind the curtain. Show the OWS minions how deep they've sold their souls to just another one percenter.

#5  And all of their spouses, for some reasons, seemed to somehow get filthy rich from Government Contracts.

Funny how that works.

And as things stand - I think I'll much prefer the three witches of Macbeth over these harpies.

#1  Prelutsky is probably headed 'straight to hell'....but a priceless assessment from the Los Angeles Times:

"Frankly, I don't know what it is about California, but we seem to have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office. I'm not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine, even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to Washington, we're Number One. There's no getting around the fact that the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Maxine Waters, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on 'Macbeth.' The four of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words."
