The woman who brings down *

[Sweet Freedom]

Just thought of that thread when I saw this in the Greatest :

In the months leading to her husband's trial on felony charges that he stole from the rare-coin funds he managed for the state of Ohio, Bernadette Noe held out a tantalizing prospect for Democrats.

It was the videotape of Tom Noe's 50th birthday party roast - a tape that could launch 30-second TV attack ads against GOP candidates like so many shells from a cannon. <end>

(But am I remembering that she's supposed to be blonde?)

1. Interesting. I was just thinking about "that woman" today...

What I remember is that one of our members predicted that her defining characteristic was not so much the blonde hair, but the fesity attitude. I think that poster characterized her as "a real shitkicker." Hee. Can't tell you if Bernadette Noe fits that description.

2. Noe isn't blonde

I remember the prediction being that a blonde would bring the house of cards down.

PS- she's not releasing that tape, either. And it seems the material on it isn't very exciting.

My reading of the articles about her yesterday had me thinking that what she really had to offer (in exchange for a plea deal, the lady's an attorney and working all her options - hey Blue, I guess that qualifies as 'shitkicker') was information about illegal campaign funding.

Doesn't look like anyone's buying what she has to sell, at least for now.
