Doolittle: "I Am Running. Period."
Despite having multiple primary challengers, plus the recent leak of a Republican poll showing him losing to his 2006 Democratic opponent, scandal-tarred Congressman John Doolittle (R-CA) has made it clear he's not backing down from his 2008 re-election fight.
"I will not step aside," Doolittle told reporters in a conference call today. "I am running again. Period."

I will be surprised if he makes it through the primaries. If he does, I am positive he won't make it through the general.

This almost certainly gives the seat to Democrats, IF he survives the primary... which is unlikely. And coming the same day as news that Hagel is set to announce his retirement for sure, this is an awful morning for the GOP.

Dude! You are SO over estimating the RED portions of my home state of Califonrnia. They still think Arnold is a moderate after his union busting tactics and his law firm trying to pooch our Electorial voting system . . .
