Pretty good, fair article on Nikki Haley's campaign

It's from Vanity Fair, so definitely not a friend of the right, but still, looking at it with that knowledge that they're coming from the left, it's still a pretty fair assessment and raises some fair questions.
The Trumpies will jump on the Hillary Clinton references (for the record, Haley said that Hillary Clinton inspired her to get into politics, not because of her policies, but because she was a woman in a man's world - I get all the potential problems with that, but it is what it is and it doesn't mean she agrees with one thing Hillary stands for politically).
What sadly doesn't surprise me is all the nastiness she and her staffers and supporters have received from the Trumpers - all the crude name-calling and immature, juvenile, bs that they like to throw at their opponents (they're just following the example of Dear Leader, so it naturally follows). Excerpts:
"In the raucous crowd at the event for “Women for Nikki,” a core group of Haley supporters and advisers, Bhavna Vasudeva, a 56-year-old Indian American broker who has known Haley for 30 years, paused from dancing to “Radio Ga Ga” to tell the story of her appearance on Fox News the day before. After advocating for Haley, she stepped off the air to find her phone blowing up with texts from MAGA die-hards. “They were calling me every kind of four-letter word,” she said.
"I looked at the texts.
"“What a f***ing c**t!!!” declared Michael from Idaho.
"“I hope you don’t wake up tomorrow,” Mike from Maryland told her.
"Bryan from Orange County, California: “B**ch shut your f***ing mouth.”
"It was a common story among the “Women for Nikki” group. Jamie Finch, its state cochair, who had phonebanked for Haley in South Carolina, said Donald Trump voters would regularly call her a “c**t” and a “w***e” on the phone. “I couldn’t believe it,” she told me."
This is the "leadership" of Donald Trump.

Well if she thinks the Trumpers are hard to deal with, just imagine if she did get the nomination and had to deal with being called a Nazi, Zionist, or misogynist ( I realize its absurd but she turned her back on the sisterhood by being an evil R) since she's, you know, a Republican and that's what they call them all after kissing up to them in the primary. Just ask McCain and Romney.
