Uh . . . I don't thing Stilly is suggesting that Cindy run as a Republican, I think she's saying that instead of running against Pelosi and being a spoiler and splitting votes (I'd a lot rather have Pelosi in there than another Republican!), she should run as a Democrat (or possibly an independent or third-party candidate) against a Republican representative, preferably an incumbant. If she wins, great! But even if not, she will undoubtedly have some following and financial support—quite possibly a large following and a lot of support—and the campaign (speeches, news coverage, etc.) would give her an opportunity to speak her piece pretty effectively.

Right, Maggie?
