Good news from CA-50: Busby could very well get the 50%

Thanks for linking to my Down With Tyranny article on Francine Busby. I've been following this race caefully-- even before the former seat holder, the now imprisoned Republicrook and extreme right-wing loon Randy "Duke" Cunningham, resigned-- and I've seen Francine (despite being a progressive Democrat) get better and better known in this conservative Republican district. Francine is a common-sense problem solver and a reformer. Democrats, independents and even moderate Republicans have gotten behind her clean-up campaign and she is way ahead of her nearest Republican competitor, ex-congressman/lobbyist Brian Bilbray. But it isn't likely that the crowded Special Election in 13 days (April 11) will find Busby will the magic 50%. She'll come in #1 but will, in all likelihood, have to compete against Bilbray again before she can turn a once-safe red seat blue. She's going to need all the help we can give her. Volunteers and contributions are crucial. How? Click on the link above.

Only because I still maintain a warm spot in my heart for San Diego & hate what Cunningham has done to the name of so many things which once stood for integrity. I wish I was still out there and could play a more active role in this race.
