Truth be told she’s not getting any help from the media. They love reporting on all the stupidity that spews out of her crazed pie hole.

The Democrat she defeated in the primary is still on the ballot in November under some minor party name. I believe the Democrat controlled media will pull out all the stops to get him back in the House.

Does she expect that not a single person attending will take notes or video or report what took place? Does she think that only card-carrying “reporters” are the only ones that report?
