Rodríguez, however, has faith that she will prevail.
To understand why her supporters are betting that she will prevail, consider how she came to this prominent post in the first place.
Ms. Rhodd-Cummings has been endorsed by Representative Meeks as well nearly every elected official in southeastern Queens, which leads most Queens politicians to predict that she will prevail.
She can't at all handle the situation, and who can blame her? Lace drinks too much white wine (The Bachelor is fueled by fruity Chardonnay) and insists that she will prevail, which alienates all the other women.
She is unshaken in her sense that she will prevail -- not just in the suit accusing Wal-Mart of widespread discrimination against women but in her quest to advance at the company.
Still, she insists that she will prevail in November -- no matter that the latest poll gives Mr. Romney "favorable" ratings that are twice hers and has him trumping the entire field of five Democratic hopefuls while she trails three.
Likely, she will prevail on Constitutional grounds -- although this case may work its way through the state and federal appeals courts before such a victory.
