While I wait for you to even invent a reason why she can win.

All the odds are that not only will Cindy lose, she will be crushed. Her message will be diluted in an attempt to appeal to voters and her credibility as "the mother of a fallen soldier speaking against the war" will be forever tainted by getting her hands dirty with politics and running for office. It will harm her cause. Unless she runs for something she can win, it's lose-lose.

She will beat up on a Democrat, no matter how DLC, who will then be tenderized for the rethug competition.
