CA-Sen: California Quake

[Holmes]

I doubt it will be 2016-SEN, but eventually top 2 will create an R vs. R statewide race.  And I think that will lead to its repeal shortly thereafter.

That would be the worst case scenario for California.

I'll miss Boxer. We need our Jewish women senators.

I'm all on board for Harris. Honestly, as long as the seat is retained by a Bay Area Democrat, I'm fine.

Harris versus Fiorina versus Jolie

Are you talking about the general? Because it's only top two. Unless you mean the primary, in which case there will probably be closer to 15 - 20 candidates.

[Holmes]

If Kashkari or Maldonado runs, this could actually be close.  But if a mainstream conservative like Carly Fiorina couldn't beat Boxer in a GOP year, and if the Republicans have totally collapsed at the state level, then it may not be possible for them to elect a Senator either. 

Kashkari literally lost by 20% statewide two months ago, and Maldonado is a loser. Neither of those (and no Republican, really) can make this race close.

[Holmes]

Need another woman to replace Feinstein when she retires.
