This is Kristi Noem, who knocked off a Democrat incumbent for the at-large congressional seat from South Dakota on Nov. 2. Noem got the call to do the GOP’s weekly radio address this week, and here she is. It’s nice to see conservatism forcefully and eloquently articulated.
And she’s not horrible on the eyes, which helps.

“We simply don’t mind that Google and Amazon rake in billions, but we despise Exxon and Archer Daniels Midland for doing the same. It is not that we need social networking and Internet searches more than food and fuel, but rather that we have the impression that cool zillionaires in flipflops are good while uncool ones in wingtips are quite bad.”
She beat an incumbent Dem who was more conservative than many Pubs. That’s saying something.
The biggest knock against her seems to be a lot of speeding tickets in her past. She obviously does not drive like Ma Kettle. That’s a plus in my book
