  2. You joke Ross, but for everything that Duke did wrong, this is the sort of thing that happens when San Diego loses a senior member on the appropriations committee. That’s how DC works. This is actually probably one of the reasons Sanders has (er, I mean is going to) endorse Bilbray. Together, he and Duncan Hunter would probably have enough clout to stop this from happening.
