I thought she did a helluva job in Chicago (the movie/musical). I'm kinda partial to that movie because I once played that gig in a pit orchestra and the music is lusty as hell.
She was nominated for best actress in that film, losing out to Catherine Zeta-Jones in the same film. Say whatcha want, the girl has some acting chops, eventually winning the Supporting Actress Oscar in Cold Mountain.
I hate the girl's politics, but she's got some skills.
Let's just hope she keeps her yap somewhat shut on things that she's clueless about.
Like Jimmy Carter, for example.
