late night politics

I dreamt I was watching TV. It was dark outside and the only light I had on was from the TV. Conan O 'Brian comes on, and as they're announcing who's on the show, they say that "Arizona Congressional candidate" Patty Weiss was on. Why would she be on a national program? Had she done something really cool? I never actually saw her on TV, cuz I woke up before she was supposed to come on. Naturally, most of District 8 affiliates her with TV as she was on channel 4 for, well, a very long time. But Conan O' Brien?
