The statement I was replying to was that her being from a blue collar
background didn't show she was not intelligent. Granted, teachers are
underderpaid when compared to others of their education, but they are
often intelligent (not to mention dedicated).

What do you think qualifies her? So far as the public record goes, she
has no relevant experience. Such flaming liberals as George Will,
David Brooks, Colin Powell, and the Chicago Tribune editorial board
agree.

Sorry, Ray I haven't been threatened by "hot" women in 30 years. I'm
not in that little competition. But it's my experience that men of any
age are easily swayed by cuties.

For what it's worth, I don't think her "hot" status will be a
determining factor.
