Fox News isn't running a segment on their primetime shows about just any ol' potential freshman Congressional candidate (she wasn't even the Dem candidate at this point). I was volunteering with the Dems for that election cycle and this was the first I had heard about her and it was after that where other Dems in my area started learning about her and glomming on. Fox News created that beast.

I think we disagree on the timeline here.  The first I ever heard of her was when she won the primary and the MSM anointed her.  I do recall Fox going after her then, but it was definitely after the MSM made such a big deal about her.
