Jerry - I was at the Kalani forum and I was cringing at some of her answers.
HOWEVER, I have sat in the capitol rotunda and watched her in action amongst other State Representatives.
She is very well received and very respected at the capitol level.
She is the first Hawaiian to actually use the Hawaiian Language when providing testimony, (while handing out English transcriptions).
To have a strong Hawaiian Lady in office that will represent all of us no matter where we are from or what ethnicity we are... is a good thing.
She may seemed laid back in her run for office, however, she does have a side of her that I don't believe many of us will ever know until you see the lady at work at the Capitol.
P.S. I would not classify Hanohano as a "Good Ole Boy - Big Island Democrat either"
