He doesn’t stand a chance. Its a safe liberal seat, otherwise a bigshot like Garamendi would not have tried it.

It used to be a Republican seat, but demography changed.

Even with the anti-Obama feelings in the air and the economy in the toilet like it is now? There are a lot of factors working against Dems right now. I think any race might be winnable by a fiscally responsible candidate of either party. Especially one who is against a stimulus that gave us 10% unemployment and the other economic policies of this administration.

I wasn’t sure about this candidate, though. But everything I read says he is at least fiscally conservative.

From the desk of cc2k:

Candidates I support: Doug Hoffman for Congress, NY 23rd (PayPal), David Harmer for Congress, CA 10th (website for info). Please, spread the word about these important special elections on November 3, 209: New York’s 23rd congressional district and California’s 10th congressional district.

It was also gerrymandered in 2000.

What's amazing about this district leaning Democrat is that it contains Travis Air Force Base and the Lawrence Livermore Nuclear Laboratory, as well as several upscale bedroom communities in Alamo, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Orinda and Moraga.

If that was true,why would Garamendi be calling in his chips and getting Bill Clinton to come out and stump for him?
I have been in the office. I have been making the calls to Decline To States. Many, many, many of them are voting for David Harmer, and Garamendi knows that, so Garamendi is playing dirty politics like sending out mailers accusing David Harmer of all kinds of nasty things. Only one thing, Garamendi had the WRONG David Harmer. So, either he is incompetent or he knew he had the wrong person and he lied. You decide.
Garamendi is very nervous about David Harmer. More people will vote for David Harmer after tonight's debate at St. Mary's College.
