Her best bet would be to run as the anti-establishment candidate. Everyone loves an underdog that she is the ultimate underdog. The outsider, the amature fighting the Washington DC big boys from both sides just to represent the people of Delaware and make their voices heard.

She's raised that in one day, if name recognition was any kind of problem, I doubt it is now. Most of the pundits won't acknowledge how all of the factors in this race have been turned on their head in just a matter of a few hours.

I don’t see the race in Delaware as much of a worry.
Are there far more dems in the state than us? Sure, lots.
Are they enthused, are they showing up to vote?—Hell no! Why would they!
Game match set.

The Republican power base will bend over backwards to make certain no conservative is elected to office. They are no different than the Democrats. The talking heads will do the same.
I hate to use this old thing but here it comes.
“When the going gets tough, the tough get going”
Perfect.
No time left for reflection.
Even brain dead liberals/neo-Marxist can take so many
hits, before they finally learn that they have been sucker punched for all these years.
I think the gal has a pretty fair chance.
Mob psychology, thanks to the tea party, is starting to take hold. (I say that in a good sense)
Human nature makes many gravitate to ground swelling movements. Everyone wants to be a part of it.
