She's absolutely, without a doubt, smarter than Paul Ryan.
She graduated cum laude from BU and, other than a couple brain fart soundbites, shows great command of domestic policy. Paul Ryan, on the other hand, is a half-witted Ayn Rand enthusiast who repeatedly represented himself as a fiscal conservative economics whiz while championing policies that were objectively fiscally wasteful and unsound (welfare drug testing, austerity policies after a fucking recession, blowing up the deficit during an economic boom for the first time in American history after being a rhetorical deficit hawk for years, etc.)
Paul Ryan is basically Scott Walker without the Downs.
