I've heard it many times, and yes, I fully agree: Jane Harman is no Joe Lieberman.
But neither is W., Attila the Hun.
And in the words of some immortal prophet I say, "What's your point?"
I was a latecomer to the Marcy Winograd campaign, I only found her courtesy of her appearance on the Young Turks show. But I was no stranger to Jane Harman disenchantment. Her bankruptcy bill vote was the first to really honk me off, and as I learned of her knowledge of NSA spying and her support, tacit or otherwise, of the Iraq debacle, not to mention her infamous "best Republican in the Democratic party" quote, her support of Patriot Act, and the oodles of green from defense contractors, disenchantment started turning to disgust. Honestly, if Diane Feinstein can speak out against the administration's Iranian machinations, where is the ranking House Dem on Intelligence?
