If you're not yet ready to take on this Hitman 2 Elusive Target and need a bit more information on just who you're dealing with, here's the official synopsis for The Politician, taken from the press release:

"Dame Barbara Elizabeth Keating (a.k.a. “The Politician”) is a disgraced former New Zealand Minister of Trade and Foreign Affairs who was forced to resign after the discovery of her charity funneling funds to her offshore interests. After shifting the blame to the charity’s director and wiping her hands clean, Dame Barbara is currently building back her reputation to restore her standing, and she is believed to be working with a body double to protect herself at public events."
