That hurts. But it's true. Someone who knows her told me that Hirono is really dumb. This was when she was first running for Senate after having served as Lt. Gov. I was like: No way. How can she be stupid when she is highly educated, served in the state legislature for years, and was Lt. Gov.
Then I watched her first debate. 
I apologize to the rest of the country on behalf of my state for saddling you with that woman.
She got into a discussion with Ted Cruz once and it went so poorly for her she just left.
