Senator Feinstein Is Hosting A Posh Fundraiser For Bob Kerrey In San Francisco
After living in New York City for over a decade, liberal Democrat Bob Kerrey will head to San Francisco to sharpen his liberal credentials as Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-San Francisco) will host a posh fundraiser today for Mr. Kerrey and his liberal allies.
For a mere $15,000 any liberal from San Francisco can personally claim they’re a friend of Bob Kerrey, while for $35,000 any Bay Area liberal can be an official sponsor of Kerrey’s campaign to “represent” the hard-working people of Nebraska in the U.S. Senate.
Notably, last week Kerrey wanted to keep outside money from entering Nebraska but now he has no problem collecting donations in San Francisco.
“Last week, Democrat Bob Kerrey wanted to keep outside money out of Nebraska yet today he’s collecting cash from Dianne Feinstein’s liberal friends in San Francisco,” said National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) spokesman Jahan Wilcox. “It’s clear liberals in New York and San Francisco know that Bob Kerrey will once again be a loyal vote for their big government agenda of higher taxes and reckless spending.”

Sacramento Bee: “Who’s More Liberal? Barbara Boxer Or Dianne Feinstein? If You Think It’s Boxer, You’re Wrong – At Least According To The Liberal Group Americans For Democratic Action, Which Ranks Washington Politicians Each Year. In 2009, The Washington-Based Group Said Both Senators Were Perfectly Liberal And Gave Them Scores Of 100. But In 2008, Feinstein Received A Score Of 100 From The Group, While Boxer Scored 95.” (“The Buzz: Who’s More Liberal, Boxer Or Feinstein?” [CA] Sacramento Bee, 7/6/10)
