So far it has been typical. Rs supporting her, Ds ripping her apart.

Re: DeVos.................
Ugh I can't stand her.
Has anyone ever NOT been confirmed?
I am curious what would happen if she wasn't confirmed. He would have to pick someone else?
Oh he won't be happy about that!

It's really so sad that just because they are Republican they would support her. What in hell is the point of all the questioning if in the end, they will just put her through despite the fact she is SO beyond unqualified?
Our system is SO broken when it matters more to stick to party lines then to do the right and just thing by the American public Bunch of idiots.
We're going to be cleaning up Trump's mess for years to come.

They can stick to party lines if they want, just not HER! There's got to be another billionaire $$$ contributor (because we know that's the primary qualification) that has some semblance of competence....

Alaska R Senator Murkowski has concerns, but supports her. Bleh.
Edited for correction: She is very concerned and said that DeVos should not count on her vote on the Senate floor.

Re: DeVos.................
I was just reading on Raw Story (which I know has its liberal biases) that some of her questionnaire answers were lifted from Ed Dept documents without any attribution or sourcing.
Still don't think it'll matter though.

Yes yes yes!!! No one seems to understand this. Anyone who voted for Trump knowing her stance and probable appointment really screwed their kids
