    1) If I said "kooky liberal" what is the first name that comes to your mind? 2) If I said "kooky leftist" what is the first name that comes to your mind? If I said "kooky right-winger" what is the first name that comes to your mind?

        I have found most of these answers amusing and many on point. Yours is the first where I say WTF. Joy Reid to my mind is the opposite of kooky. She is usually the smartest person in the room and always brings receipts.

        Kooky is kind of an endearing term, so I'm not sure which emotion this is supposed to elicit.
