Bill Simon is terribly late, almost jogging through the halls of the Sacramento Hyatt Regency.
The California Republican County Chairman's Association is waiting and may adjourn without listening to the 2002 gubernatorial nominee's pitch to be state treasurer.

Upstairs in a cramped room on the 11th floor, meanwhile, state Sen. Charles Poochigian is pinned against a wall deep in conversation as would-be supporters of his bid for attorney general partake of wine and salami.

3. Except her name is apparently mud here at DU.....

See the other Feinstein threads in this forum and others.

4. Fortunately DU is not very representative of Democrats as a whole

If it were, there wouldn't be many Democrats in elected office.

6. Yeah but it helps when this place is at least moderately supportive (nt)

7. Geezus, maybe I'm just really left of you all but DiFI

is up to her eyeballs in defense contracts, in bilking Medicaid and in our trade deficit with China.

I'm in SF, and I remember when she helped this city after the Moscone and Milk murders. She was tremendous. This place was like a morgue, literally, for months. She stepped in, put arms around and helped us.

But, that was years and millions of dollars ago.

I won't forgive her anytime soon for saying yes to this bullsh#t war that has cost so many so much. But, maybe she'd be good in the state house?

What am I missing?
