Well ... it has been some time since CA had a male Senator ... 1993 to be exact.

I like Ted Lieu and would like to see him in the Senate, but I would not predict him.

I went to elementary school with a relative of Alan Cranston's ... grandkid or grand-nephew, something like that, I forget.
I remember he was blond, good-looking, had the best clothes, and acted like he owned the place.

Porter, Schiff, Bass. Schill is good where he is IMO, as is Bass. I like Porter for the Senate.

Porter or Becerra seem more likely. Or Sanchez.
