The moment a really great conservative woman appears on a politicalhorizon, the little trolls in the media go to their busy dirty work.
Doesn't it work the other way too? If you want to go into politics, you have to be prepared to deal with that.
So, why would any good , honest conservative person go to politics?
Let me suggest one -- to make the world a better place (from their point of view). To do what heart and mind dictate? Why would you do that otherwise? Hmmm.... I guess it is much easier to sit and complain about "the left (right) conspiracy"....
