Monday Potpourri

Interesting article on top two and how it's pushing some candidates in one party races to move to the center on issues. I expected this and any candidate who doesn't try to go after the other party is likely to lose.

Fresno Bee for David Valadao.

The very wealthy Pete Stark not only collects Social Security but his kids do too. And he thinks it'd be terrible if the government stopped giving money to rich people. Of course giving money to rich people means the Social Security trust fund will run out of money and increases the chances that those that need it in the future won't get it.

Stark won't debate Swalwell, but instead accuses him of supporting the Ryan budget and all but calls him a Republican. Swalwell is a Democrat and doesn't support the Ryan budget or probably almost anything else Republicans propose. Stark makes me want to contribute to Swalwell and I am definitely a Republican.
