ONly in the sense of media exposure. She's been completely unvetted, politically, and has never had to speak before national audiences and undergo major interviews in major media settings, that I am a ware of. Her choice is certainly the "hail mary" play that people have suggested, in my opinion. Which is only a "very savvy political choice" if it works. And hail mary plays aren't done very often because they usually don't. Lawson
