how do I say this nicely, a lightweight.

You know how in every graduating class, someone has to finish last, but they still get a diploma? There you go.

Legit interesting. She struck me as one who at least did her homework. Can you talk a little more about what you know of her, competence-wise?

I don't want to say too much, because she is a very nice hard working individual. I also don't want to blow too much of my own cover.

She just doesn't seem to have much of a grasp of the concrete, complex issues. She had her own small practice and also served as the CFO for a small company. I would gladly let her do my own taxes and 90 percent of the state.

But in meetings / workshops where she has been there, it seems like she struggles with higher level concepts. At the sales tax modernization meetings... there were many times she looked out of her depth.

At the end of the day, she may well end up being the most qualified candidate, but that will be because the others are worse.

Don't just assume, oh, she's a CPA, she's perfect.

Agree.

Maybe compared to other CPAs she is a lightweight, but compared to other legislators she is Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius.
