Feinstein is no longer a Democrat in any meaningful sense of the word

See Greenwald on Dianne Feinstein's latest capitulation to Bush Administration interests. I wrote recently to Sen. Feinstein deploring the fact that she is no longer a Democrat in any meaningful sense of the word. Some of her positions are actually worse than those of Joseph Lieberman. It's really unfortunate that she's Class I, meaning she's in through 2012. She's probably the ripest for a primary challenge on ideological grounds of any Democratic senator in California in a long, long time. I hope and pray when that time comes, she retires (she's 75 now), making room for a real Democrat.
