A stripper is running for mayor
Basically sounds like her plan is to do nothing but sit back and watch other people do the job

Guess she can run on she has nothing to hide.  :rofl:

Quote
Asked what managerial experience she brings to the table, she acknowledged, "I have none," but "the team I'm pulling together will be the people who guide me on that."

Being mayor, she says, isn't about implementing policies; if elected, she'd delegate most of the mayoral tasks to the city councilors. "I think it can fall to the City Council to do the legislation," she told Willamette Week. "I would hope to see a mayor that is a figurehead."

Does that mean lobbyists and interest groups will be talking her into all sorts of stuff?  Sounds like the normal politicians.

If she is honest, great.  If not, same old thing.

Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God?

Has she suddenly remembered she was groped by Trump yet?
