For head of the state utility regulatory agency because she talked a good game about consumer rights. Her win launched her political career and I watched with dread as she became more and more rightwing. After that, even if a republican talks a good game, I pull the lever for a Democrat and take my chances with the Dem, that strategy has worked well for me.
