That's because people have heard of von Anhalt, and no one has ever heard of Chelene Nightingale. Aside from her immediate circle of friends and family, she won't get any votes. The media is more apt to recognize Angelyne than Chelene as a candidate. Part of the problem is that Chelene has never presented herself as a serious candidate. She has issued her own press releases about electrifying thousands at stump speeches and being the ONLY one to save California. So, she's going the way of everyone else who is the ONLY one to save state or nation. Ron Paul, Bob Barr, Chuck Baldwin anyone. Compounding the problem is that Chelene has no successes behind her. Aside from being a "community activist" and presiding over the death throes of Save Our State the Original, there is no basis to claim a history of doing it right. Failed as entertainer. Faild as model. Failed as campaign manager for a candidate that failed. Oh yes, once in the same room as Ron Paul, not known for his excessive success either.

Now put all that experience up against a Meg Whitman or Jerry Brown and Chelene doesn't even make the grade of fading into the background. There's nothing to fade.
