The LA Times article specifically mentioned the Dem primary between Filner vs Vargas in the 51st district. Filner is considered part of the Waxman-Berman Jewish-Black Dem machine. The new Latino activists have broken with that alliance, as evidenced by Villaraigosa's win in LA.
The old Chinese proverb certainly rings true; conservatives generally think they are the big losers from amnesty, but the Jewish-Black block have just as much to lose to the new Latino majority.
I'm ALL for getting rid of Filner. I recall him from his student days and he was a radical Leftie back then too.
P.S. --- I hope you acquired your LAT's FREE.
