She appears to be aggressively progressive and she's here in SF almost every other week to raise money. AND she beat an incumbent (albeit weak) Republican for Congress. It seems also that Hirono had a couple other issues working against her in 2002. It was a year when a Republican was even elected governor in Maryland and, if I remember correctly, there was a lot of antipathy toward the outgoing Cayetano. Either way, she's looks more aggressive this time around.
