Senator Feinstein’s Duty

The drive by liberal Democrats to give Senator Feinstein the bum’s rush is shaping up as one of the most unseemly political spectacles in years. Even the Washington Post calls the effort to force into early retirement the senior Coast senator, sidelined by a case of shingles, “ugly.” Speaker Pelosi suspects sexism is at play. Whatever the cause may be, we’re rooting for the venerable Ms. Feinstein, a centrist in her party, to hold fast.
