Not sure I will either, waiting to see who is on ballot. Just my guess he will win. He is the only R Dems will vote for. Another R might have a chance if Feinstein runs.

"He is the only R Dems will vote for."

Democrats that are conservative leaning or "moderate" will never vote for a "moderate" Republican, they will always vote for the democrat. It takes a conservative Republican to gain their vote, that's the falicy of running a RINO in a district that registration favors the democrats. RINOs only win in Republican registration districts and then only because they somehow made it through the primary.

I proved it when I ran against Richard Alatore for the Assembly. It was a 26% Republican district, mostly welfare mexican (east L.A.) and I ran a ultra conservative campaign and got 39% of the vote, the highest any Republican had ever received in that district, even more suprising is that i'm a blond blue eyed Norwegian/German and the mexican Republican that ran the 2 times before against him only got a vote percentage in the 20s.

I didn't run against him to win. I only did it at the request of the state party to keep his massive bankroll from being spread into other district where it could have done some real damage. I re registered at my office that was in his district in order to do it.

If the 'Rats vote for him then he won't miss my non vote...
