From Howie Klein, DownWithTyranny:
"
's filed her papers and will be officially kicking off her primary campaign for CA-36, the district John lives in and Harman represents, with a rally on Monday afternoon (4pm) at the Venice Pier.
Marcy, who is a kind of West Coast Donna Edwards, founded the Los Angeles chapter of Progressive Democrats of America and built a good solid base from which to start her race against Harman. Three years and one week ago I urged Down With Tyranny readers to support her bid against the aloof, imperious Harman. Yesterday I asked her what will be different this year than in 2006.
*SNIP*
Since 2006 she's been a tireless activist in L.A., an Obama campaigner, A co-founder of LA Jews for Peace, an Executive Board member of the California Democratic Party, who successfully introduced resolutions to protect our vote, bring our troops home, and implement parole and sentencing reform. She also helped organized a Progressive Caucus within the California Democratic Party. When I asked her, as I do all candidates now, if she would pledge not to join the Blue Dog caucus or any other group or reactionary Democrats in Congress she laughed. She'll be joining the congressional Progressive Caucus on day one."

Hopefully Harman will get successfully primaried out along with Specter and other traitorous Dems.
