For California Voters . . .


Dianne Feinstein is up for re-election AGAIN and really, really needs to retire. Check out Emily Emken's site and seriously consider giving her your vote. Naturally, she is out-cashed with Feinstein so sending a donation and passing on the word would be very helpful in putting Miz Feinstein out of office. Pass it on!

The bad news is that Miz Feinstein has more cash being on the Democratic payroll. The good news is that she doesn't have 50% so if everyone gets this message out about Emily Emken, we might just surprise the incumbent on election day.
