She and her people know when she gets in front of any other audience she's seen for what she is... an empty pant suit.
Except I don't view her as an empty pantsuit. I view her as a descendant (voodoo econonecromancer?) of Reagan. I get the feeling, however, that she will go beyond Reagan. She wants to be like Reagan if he were a Tea Partier. So basically Reagan but without any Keynesian sense.
