Don't primary Obama, primary DI FI |
|
Obama, for all his faults, is the best we are going to get. If we primary him, we will lose and say hello to President Bachmann.
HOWEVER, Di Fi has been a DINO for so long, there's a comet with her name on it. She ALWAYS votes with the Conservatives, was gung ho for Iraq and Afghanistan, and literally ignores her constituents. Her only claim to fame was that she announced the killing of Harvey Milk and George Moscone.
SO - how can we run a primary campaign against her?

1. Perhaps Dennis Kucinich should move to CA instead of WA and run against her |

2. He'd be more at home in San Francisco than he would Seattle |
|
Nothing against the Emerald City, but SF could bring him more money

3. Nonsense. See what she does on SS and Medicare. |
|
If Obama pushes cuts and Senate Dems successfully resist, that is good. And if Feinstein is among those resisting, then don't primary her.
And this comes from someone who lived in San Francisco before and after Di Fi became mayor, and who saw her as the enemy because she was anti-rent control.

7. I've had the honor of despising my senators from two different states. |
|
Di Fi and Helms.
One's a self-absorbed egomaniac who constantly stabs friends in the back. The other was a Republican.

9. She also voted for the Patriot Act |
|
I despise her. She barely runs and wins. She's got friends in high places and always passes government work to her husband. They're both wallowing in filthy wealth.
I've voted against her three times. The last time I think she didn't bother to make any campaign ads at all.
