I wouldn't lose too much sleep over the Left's discomfiture with Feinstein. I'm surprised at The American Spectator's rush to defend her, though.

She's still the current champion of abolishing the Electoral College, a scheme designed to deliver the presidency into the hands of the ruling party in the major urban centers of the U.S., and to eliminate the inclusive intent for those in the less populated states. All the while, she opposes a similar move in her home state.

She's still the one who, with her husband, profits obscenely from commercial dealings with the country oppressing Nepal (not to mention Tibet), while their nonprofit American Himalayan Foundation hustles donations for the poor oppressed Nepalese.

She's still the one who steered ultra-lucrative Defense contracts to her husband's firms for work in Iraq, while having helped bash Halliburton for obtaining similar contracts.

She's a liberal Democrat. She only seems human when compared to her buddy Barbara Boxer. She will work to elect Hillary Clinton.

p>So she voted to confirm an AG candidate nominated by fellow liberal Democrats, and for that she wins your praise. br> -- Dennis Dilley br> California
