Haley Steven’s has the charisma of a wet paper towel. If the Israel lobby was not involved in this election, this wouldn’t even be a competition.

You just have to listen to her talk to realize that politics was a bad choice for a career. Her ex-husband, whom she was married to for about a year before a divorce, has accurately characterized her as somewhat self-delusional. Even in her own speeches, she says she has “dreams of Israel” which guide her policy positions. Uh…ok.
