Wow! Tea Bagger Craig Huey's Ad Pops Up at Top of My DU Screen [View all]

Craig Huey is an extremist Tea Party local businessman who is running in the newly formed California Assembly District 66. AD 66 is the remnants of the former Democrat Safe AD 53. The holder of the AD 53 seat chose not to run in the newly formed AD 66 because of the slim margin between voter registration in the area. Torrance School Board member Al Muratsuchi is the democrat running against Huey for the AD 66. I just wanted to take a moment to stump for Al. I have worked with him in my role as local teachers union president, and I know that Muratsuchi knows first hand the stark budgetary issues facing education and other general fund programs in our state. He too is a public employee and member of a union. Craig Huey is trying to buy his way into Sacramento after his failed attempt at buying his way into Washington, DC. I can only hope that Democrats in our newly formed AD 66 will GOTV for Al Muratsuchi for California Assembly. And I hope not to spew my oatmeal at the screen anymore when I see the ironic Tea Party Ad at the top of my DU homepage.
