It is almost impossible for a candidate to compete with her due to that reason and the fact that it's enabled her to amass a considerable war chest for being a rep from the middle of nowhere NC. We haven't had a candidate that has had the name recognition, money or backing, and charisma to catch fire against her. Not all of her district's denizens are RWNJ's, and some of us are even long time democrats. It's amazing how little we see her here in my rural county, and even when she's here you have to be in the know and free to do as you plesse in the middle of a weekday to get to see her.
