As I understand it, she still has trouble walking and a lot of trouble reading, speaking, and comprehending. While this would not impede a lot of our congress-critters, she felt she could not adequately represent her district.

As to JJ's question: who knows!?! I was not a fan of Kelly's, though I supported him against Giffords in their race. In the recent primary, I had hoped our own Frank Antenori would win, but I guess Kelly still had lots of money left from the previous campaign.

Barber is a twerp, plain and simple. He's a political staffer. He is way more liberal than Giffords positioned herself. However, I would NOT underestimate the sympathy vote in that district.

In short... close, but Barber wins. (I could be wrong and usually am... hope so in this case.)
