I suspect the "Major Media" in NC crowned her the GOP candidate for the express purpose of tearing her down come campaign time. They have not been able to do so. If Dan Blue or Elaine Marshall had been the RAT candiate I suspect they would have been able too. But with Irksome as the alternative for voters, their job was not an easy one.

You have got to be kidding me. WRAL didn't even hardly mention Bowles on the air until sometime in June/July of this year. And they were more than willing to show the numbers of her crushing Bowles, time and time and time again. Mind you they showed Democratic primary numbers in late July. They even showed the polls with the Democratic candidates who received 1-2% of the vote. But for some mysterious reason they didn't even bother reporting that Giddy had competition on the Republican side. Nope they just skipped right over those numbers and showed how she would beat Bowles in November. That's honest reporting for you

Face it. She was crowned last year. This is just the dressing. They had no plans to tear her down. The media was behind her 100% because for the first time in NC this was a Republican they could trust. That should scare you right there. A Republican the media likes. Don't you worry though. She's going to win and big.
