Fat chance.
The Death to America crowd will pull out all the stops to get her into Congress.
...and the GOP could hand it right back by wringing their hands and declaring that district to be one where people want liberal policies and nominating someone just like Fluke but “not as bad” and with an “R” by their name. Watch.
I looked at Waxman’s election history.
He was winning every two years by HUGE margins and suddenly in 2012 (even riding a huge 23 point Obama victory margin in California) barely won.
Anybody know the details there?
Last year, the district’s boundaries were changed so that it now pretty much encompasses the district represented by conservative firebrand “B-1 Bob” Dornan from 1977-1983. So maybe a GOP candidate has a chance.
If Fluke runs, it would be hard for our side to lose.
If she loses, our guy gets in.
If she wins, we don’r lose a seat we didn’t have, and, we get a endless target.
and here I thought she would sleep her way through her constituents....
It’s LA. You could run Hitler on the Democratic ticket and Jesus as a Republican and Hitler would win. Same in San Francisco.
I wouldn’t mind giving up a seat to the Rats if it means they have a Congresscritter who’s name starts with “F” and rhymes with “truck.”
That’s my Congressional district. I hope no Democrats more qualified than she is will run. It will be my pleasure to work for the Republican candidate, against her.
By the way, we just became part of Waxman’s district in the redistricting (gerrymandering) of two years ago. The Republican stronghold of South Bay/Palos Verdes was subsumed into a district that had a majority of liberals, stretching from PV up to Beverly Hills.
No way could a GOP beat Fluke. She’s slept with most of the voters that she’ll need to win the election.
After all the ridicule, slander, politics of personal destruction launched at Tea Party candidates, Sandra Fluke..., really, the poster girl for free rubbers, because no one would want to pay for the one used on her? ...Democrats have no sense of embarrassment, shame, or the ludicrous.
More fun would be 8 Democrats share the RAT votes while two Republicans share the GOP vote. Runoff would be two Republicans.
That ought to be entertaining.
“You’re breakin’ my heart, you’re tearin’ it apart, so Fluke you...”
