Regardless of your political disposition, you can't defend her. She is an idiot. This isn't up for debate. If you're a conservative, there are plenty of intelligent candidates that you can get behind; people don't need to defend her just because she's a conservative. She should be shunned from this process because her involvement is a farce and an embarrassment on our political system in general.
We can disagree on how things should be done in this country, but what we should all agree on is that there is no spot in the marketplace of ideas for morons.
