I just heard Carly Fiorina announced she's running against Boxer. She did such a great job running McCain's finance committee until she made some stupid comment and got canned. She was the worst CEO at HP ever. Absolutely horrible. Friends of mine were literally dancing on their desks when she got canned. She has quite a future getting canned some more. -- Nom=de=Plume |

Oh wait - San Francisco - that explains everything. Yeah, but... the *area* hasn't elected a Democrat since sometime in the 1800s. The 23 District moves around. At one time it was part of Manhattan. I used to be in Maryland's 8th Congressional district. But, the Democrats in Maryland wanted to get Chris Van Hollen elected to Congress so the redistricted Connie Morella out and my area got put into the 4th Congressional district. We didn't move, we just got redistricted from a majority Republican district to a majority Democrat district. Gerrymandering of Congressional districts is State House sport that occurs every 10 years. Elections do matter. Same here in Calif. The District that has most of the silicon Valley in it also has a 2 mile wide swath over hwy 152 to include Livingston, CA. Which about 100 miles across the San Joaquin Valley. Yeah but Gerrymandering is only a crime in red states like Texas... Pffffttt... And especially with a do nothing congress trying to keep from doing any real work.. -- Wafa free again. |

I grew up across the bay and moved over the hill to a place that is not foggy 1/2 the year. I worked there and graduated university there, and still own property there. Just do not get me started on the Assessors office. But a crappy place to live. Unless you were maybe 21-28 and high income. |
