...which means you all believe that she has tons 'o skillz. That's great.

Speaking only for myself, she clearly has the skill of politics because she keeps winning.

Beyond that, I know very little about her other than she's a progressive, and I've seen some smart quotes from her. But she's not in my state. I don't really track every congressperson who isn't in my state. If she ever enters the running for higher office, I'll learn more because I will need to.

However, to your other point, being good looking in life is pretty much always a "plus". From the cradle (where babies will stare at pretty people longer than ugly people), to old age, being attractive -especially for a public-facing job- is always beneficial.**


**Though, sometimes good looking people have difficulty being taken seriously. I don't know if that worked against her or not. Maybe "always beneficial" was overstating it a bit.
