2. What a pathetic, bitter woman.
Makes you see why "Duke" did all the dirty deeds. Kept trying to please a miserable person, who could never be pleased.

9. She thinks SHE's the victim here. How is that possible?
She lived off of the Dukester's corrupt largess for decades at the expense of the health and wellbeing of his constituents, and she's what, miffed? Insulted the Gubbmint took his blood money?

There is no way that biach didn't know she was married to a despicable sack of shyte. She needs to be in jail too...

4. No big deal!!
But she dismissed luxury items given to him as bribes - including yachts, homes and antique furnishings - as ``not that great'' and described their $2.55 million estate as ``a fixer-upper.''

Right.

8. A $2.5 million house a "fixer-upper"
Let's check her attitude in 2 years or so. I love to watch people like her crash and burn.

10. Where did that dumb woman think the $2.5 Million "fixer upper" came from?
Or the yacht? Seen any congressmen live like that? Most of them have a nice middle class home district home and a "bachelor pad" near Capitol Hill...not two million dollar homes and yachts...Well, she'll make a great greeter at ChinaMart.
