    Ha! This early on in a round, I wouldn't mind you changing your mind (and not even telling me), and going with someone else. As it happens, I met Sen. Harris and heard her speak about a year ago at a fundraiser in Ohio. She was OK but didn't particularly wow me.

    My other IQs:

    Did you play women named Elizabeth for two of your best-known early roles? - Keira Knightley, in Pirates of the Caribbean and Pride & Prejudice
    Did you found modern-day Turkey? - Kemal Ataturk

    Go again, if you like.
