Kat is referring to the world reknown 15th century English poet and playwright who is most famous for his works, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and of course, The Taming of the Shrew (the play the original 1999 movie, 10 Things I Hate About You was loosely based on).

Analysis |

Kat is Liberal? No Really!
If one thing was clear about this episode, it was that Kat is definitively liberal in the way she thinks about the world. And just like a liberal she believes in the thought of Universal Healthcare (a thought worth exploring) and how that could be the easiest and cheapest solution to our current health care dilemma. This being made crystal clear when she complained (to Walter) about this country being the only western power NOT to have it. To which Walter replied, "Are you talking to me or the Democrats in your head?" A very funny line and a clue as to which political party he thinks his daughter will ultimately call home.
I have to admit that I think this is an interesting, though not original, character trait that they've placed on their lead. And hope we can see more of this type of clever character development even if it doesn't involve an outright declaration of a political idealogy.
