Alice Stewart, a veteran political adviser and CNN political commentator who worked on several GOP presidential campaigns, has died. She was 58.

Law enforcement officials told CNN that Stewart’s body was found outdoors in the Belle View neighborhood in northern Virginia early Saturday morning. No foul play is suspected, and officers believe a medical emergency occurred.

    Bachmann, Santorum, Huckabee, and Cruz are the Presidential campaigns she worked for. What an uninspiring career.

        Imagine working to make grifters look appealing. The only people who will miss her are her family and because she’s conservative, probably not the whole family.

        I mean…she worked on campaigns for figures that we all recognize. For races where there’s only one person in the whole country who will win…every four years.

        Not everyone can win. Dan Marino never won a super bowl.

        Most of us can’t say we’ve had more recognizable work than her.

    Damn, 58’s nothing. Barely middle age these days. I hope whatever it was that killed her was quick. She worked for some scumbags, but that’s hardly a reason to celebrate that a family has a dead wife, mother and possibly daughter to bury.

      This comment has the sort of broken cynicism and utter indifference to our shared humanity you normally only see in CNNs coverage of foreign wars
