Senator Feinstein sells out Americans AGAIN

[adieu]

37. Here's the thing

Pelosi is more liberal than Feinstein. She also has enough experience so that once she gets to the senate, she can start elbowing without much worry about being the "junior" senator. At the same time, we can get someone new, with fresh blood to take over Pelosi's seat in the House. Yes, we may lose the potential speakership spot if the House swings to the Democrats in 2014, but I think there would be a reasonable good replacement for her in that case.

Then, since Pelosi isn't such a young gun, she may either retire or die in the next 6 years or so, so she may have one, maybe two terms as senator. After she goes, we can push on with more liberal candidates. Both Boxer and Pelosi were born in 1940. Feinstein in 1933.

Remember, Boxer was a long-time congressperson as well before landing the senate seat.

I'm sort of plugged in to the SF politics and see some dynamic younger group, those born in the 70s and later, who can fill in once Pelosi and Feinstein leave office.
