So find a more tolerable RAT to run against her. Or if it's a racial thing, a more tolerable black RAT.
I know, easier said than done. But somehow, her supporters need to discover how she places herself so far above them that she can not represent their interests.
I still think publishing this post in the local papers might be worthwhile. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Her supporters most likely identify with her and love it that she is trashing the man because they think of it as themselves doing it.
