17. My response to Cali has the answer, should make it an OP too

20. Cali the story has been covered in both the Mexican Media,

Not just channel 12 Tijuana, televisa station, but also CBC Canada.

In the US is not, yet, registering and msnbc, the place for politics, is doing a lousy job on it's effects to the California party, but this is now international.

It's worst than that...Wiener really never had bills passed in Congress. Filner served in the Armed Services committee as chairman, among other committees, and among others was the author of the GI bill for the 911 generation. In other words he was not a back bencher.

Anthony Weiner was loud while in Congress. Filner was part of the inside tract machine.

My opinion, it's not been reported that way by the NY-DC media because Filner could touch, and drag down, other powerful dems.

And I get not to chase this story today....Yee haw!!!! (He is supposed to show at a ground breaking ceremony...doubt it)
