More Harris quotes from former campaign manger.
Starbucks?

On top of that, former staffers started talking to reporters about their former boss, describing her as a micromanaging bully who is prone to temper tantrums and unpredictable behavior. Some quit because they couldn't take it anymore.

"She was very capable of being sweet as pie, but those moments were few and far between," said Jim Dornan, who served as her campaign manager for five months last year. "She berated people for the most minute things, like if there wasn't a Starbucks within three blocks of a campaign event.

"She has," Dornan said, "this sense of entitlement that I think drives a lot of her behavior."

1. "Sense of entitlement" and "Republican" don't they go hand in hand?

I can't believe anyone wanted to work for her in the first place. Were they under a rock for the past six years? How can these campaign workers be so clueless? I'm glad they're airing the dirty laundry in public, but come on how could they not have known a lot of this stuff before they took the job?

2. they sure seem to here in Cinci
I was driving in a very rightwing neighborhood last night, and had people cut me off several times, hog intersections, and driving like total asshats. jeez, people! I know sometimes everyone gets in a hurry, but I think at 8:30 pm, try to relax and let other people walk and drive on the same road.

I think it's a natural byproduct/fallout of the "social evolution" philosophy - they honestly feel that they have to compete for everything and that to be nice shows weakness or something. f'd up, if you ask me. Enjoy your heart attacks.

3. Just read her resume
Saw at the end of the article that she went to Agnes Scott. HAHA one more thing to give my wife (Agnes Scott alumnus also) hell about.
