raised more money than any other congressional challenger in the nation in the first quarter, then shattered that figure with a $450,000 in the 2nd quarter.

There's nothing to indicate he's any less progressive than Frankel but he can easily come across as more moderate in a campaign. He doesn't have any controservy in his past we know of that they could use against him. Which is one of the benefits of being a 28 year old environmental/Construction Executive amd accountant and not a 63 year old longtime legislator who's gone through tons of primary and general election campaign wars.

It just seems like he's already running a much better campaign than her. Besides the fundraising, he has a great website with video ads and regular commentary/statements from the candidate. All she has is a one page 'contribute' banner so far.
