What's up with the junior senator from California these days

By Rob J.

Is Babs Boxer (D), the mental midget and junior sized junior Senator from California calling it quits when her current term of office concludes on January 20,2017?  It would appear so based upon informed sources close to her campaign staff and Democrat fundraisers.

The 14th longest-serving senator, Boxer has not officially made up her mind about seeking a fifth termtwo years from now, but several signs point toward retirement, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

The 73-year-old senator, who joined the Senate in 1993, has less than $200,000 in her campaign account compared to $3.5 million this time last year. 

"She is not running for re-election," said one longtime Democratic fundraiser with deep ties to Boxer.  Continue Reading Washington Examiner

Boxer's retirement will leave the door open for a number of next generation California Democrats to enter the race for Boxer's seat in 2016, not the least of which is the current Lt. Governor, Gavin Newsom along with current Attorney General, Kamala Harris, a black woman.  

Boxer, all 4 foot and 11 inches, has never been one to shy away from the limelight, despite the fact that she has always been in the shadow of California's senior Senator, Dianne Feinstein (D).  Boxer has pushed every hair brained liberal issue imaginable in her many years in the U.S. Senate.

Feinstein, a thrice married 81 year old political dinosaur,  has done her best as a leading advocate to eliminate, or at least neuter, the 2nd Amendment.  Her anti-gun rhetoric is famous in California.   She has a concealed carry permit to carry a gun since her days as mayor of San Francisco, which catapulted her into the U.S. Senate in 1993.  Can you say hypocrite?
