Signs your campaign is drowning.

Asked what might happen if Dewhurst decides to run commercials that criticize her connection to the Democratic president - who is not popular in Texas - Chavez-Thompson replied, "Have at it. It's more publicity for me."

With no money, no name ID, and no way to bridge support from the hard-progressive-left of the Democrats the only hope Chavez-Thompson has remaining is that the Dewhurst campaign somehow implodes.

Barring that, it's small victories, like having them acknowledge your presence.
