California Liberal Diane Feinstein May Have To Face Reagan In Her Bid For Reelection

California liberals think they are safe because of the hard left attitude of the voters of California - especially when no Republican takes up the challenge to try and knock a democrat out of office.

In the upcoming 2012 election, Senator Diane Feinstein has no challengers as of yet.

Even the California Republican Party chairman has no idea who will take on 19-year-incumbent Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein next year.

Feinstein, however, is not pulling in the funding she used to, and her approval numbers are way down to 41 percent, the lowest of her Senate career.

One person considering a run, though he has not stepped forward yet, is Michael Reagan, a former conservative talk-radio host and the son of former President Ronald Reagan.

Voter disgust with the liberal democrats may be enough to put a Reagan in the Senate, and end Queen Feinstein's reign.

On top of Feinstein's difficulty pulling together contributions for her campaign, her longtime campaign treasurer, Kinde Durkee, has been arrested on charges that she stole or misappropriated $670,000 from state Assemblyman Jose Solorio, D-Anaheim.

Feinstein's $5.2 million re-election war chest may or may not be "wiped out," said her campaign consultant Bill Carrick.

If Reagan is going to take on the Senator, the opportunity will be ending soon. A candidate has to announce by mid-November to stir interest before the end of the year.
