    I don’t think anyone is upset by this and I am confident the people of california can bring us someone great for congress. I am a bit worried though as I know in illinois a congressman just bowed out post deadline for people to register for the primaries which if he had done before would have resulted in a much bigger field.

        That’s a dumb strategy. The disclosures come waaay after-the-fact, when it’s too late to get the same insider-trading advantage.

    The economic outlook is so bleak that even people who can take advantage of insider trading are getting out.

    Good riddance, all her grifted insider-traded capital gains should be taken away and distributed to taxpayers.
