Daryl Issa may have a real chance for defeat this election: His Democratic opponent is a retired Marine Corps colonel who spent 32 years in the service and ended it at Camp Pendleton (in the district). He was within a few percentage points in the open primary. Issa has gone all out for Trump, so a Trump defeat might sink him too. The district is relatively wealthy but has become increasingly Hispanic and other minorities.
Applegate is fantastically qualified, being a lawyer, an infantry officer, a judge advocate, and having blue collar roots.

would he have done better if the DNC wasn't totally in the bag for Hillary By "in the bag" do you mean she was a loyal Party soldier most of her adult life, especially in 2008 when she graciously stepped aside and endorsed Obama. Then served as Obama's Secretary of State. Almost all of the superdelegates voted for her because she knew them personally and had worked with them. This is how you build Party loyalty. As opposed to Sanders who only registered as a Democrat when he decided to run? Actually I think he was referring to the PROVEN concerted effort by high ranking officials in the DNC to damage Sander's campaign .  Onward Christian soldiers ...

As opposed to Sanders who only registered as a Democrat when he decided to run? I get that Hillary is a life-long Party soldier. Having said that, no matter how long she has been a party soldier and no matter how long Bernie has been a Democrat, equality and justice for all is equality and justice for all. Fairness is fairness. A level playing field is a level playing field.

The long awaited trump pivot has happened. Brietbart is now running the campaign.
Buckle up!
GOP exodus incoming.

no matter how long she has been a party soldier and no matter how long Bernie has been a Democrat, equality and justice for all is equality and justice for all. Fairness is fairness. A level playing field is a level playing field. You do know that the DNC is NOT part of the federal government, right? Your demand of "equality and justice for all" is incredibly naive. They tend to favor Democrats and have no obligation to treat outsiders the same as loyal Democrats. Bernie was not a Democrat before the primary and he is not a Democrat now. Maybe if he had bothered to register as a Democratic Party member a few years ago his treatment would have been better. That is his failing. Not the DNC's.
