Nag-- It is one thing to talk about getting things done and another thing to get things done in this hyperpartisan environment....She is green and I am willing to give her time to figure things out. I hope she herself figures that out within a few months of being in office. Someone should give her a copy of Robert Caro's biography of LBJ to learn something about Congress, especially his volume 3, Master of the Senate, but also volume 4, where he goes into how Johnson got the Civil Rights bills passed. Unhappily, she seems like a person who wears her emotions on her sleeve and may be incapable of the kind of abstract thought divorced from emotions that dealing with this hyperpartisan environment requires in order to be effective (as are many members of the GOP, perhaps I should add--the so-called "Freedom Caucus" members as well as others not formally part of that coalition).
