There is a LOT of enthusiasm for her from MT Dems - much more, in fact, than there ever was for Walsh.

The fact is that it is late in the election year and she only received about $2000 from the Walsh Senatorial campaign. She needs money to publicize herself and to make her case against Daines, who has been just another obstructive RW GOPer in the House and has zilch to commend him for the Senate other than having name recognition.

S180,000 can buy a lot of air time and campaign commercials in MT, no matter where the $$$ come from.

The rest is up to her and to Montanans themselves.
