open primary means the top two get to go on regardless of part affiliation. We may get two dems. I am inclined to vote Levitt sp? as Dianne is certain to be one of the winners

That's where I'm going. DiFi peaked when, having lost a bet, she cut the ribbon for Pier 39 in SF wearing a bikini. I't been a long, agonizing slide downhill since then.

Welcome to the David Levitt for U.S. Senate 2012 campaign in California's historic June 5th primary!

We're doing something extraordinary: using our elections to stand up for what Americans want, especially the people of California, when other Senate candidates and incumbents who should be representing us just won't do it.

While we have a detailed policy platform to invest in jobs, renewable infrastructure and education, amid fairer taxes - developed by over 100,000 people known as the Contract for the American Dream - for the June 5th primary election campaign we're focussed on 3 issues:

End Afghanistan End Prohibition Medicare for All

This should be entertaining, LOL! Her official campaign website refers to her as "Dr. Taitz" and "Orly Taitz Esquire." And a poll of 500 voters finds that she's the #1 candidate!

Is California THIS crazy? I don't think so.
