In reply to the discussion: What a Pic! Rep Issa On Roof Of His District Office-Too Afraid To Come Speak With Constituents Below [View all]calimary
(89,548 posts)33. His district has been targeted BIGTIME.
Flip SoCal Left, Indivisible here in West L.A., Code Blue, and our Congressman, Ted Lieu, with his own district-flipping campaign.
Darrell has lost his swagger. Indeed he did barely hang on, by a hair, last November, and he knows his neck is on the chopping block. He's been attempting to "sound" more reasonable, accepting of such ideas as an independent prosecutor, trying in his own weasel way to "rehabilitate" himself against a rising tide against him.
Both Issa AND Steve Knight up in northern L.A. county are targeted - BIGTIME. And they know it. And they're nervous. The wind is at Democrats' backs this time.

He knows his career is over. He barely won re-election in a district Hillary won easily.
