Ami Bera (D), who took Congressional District 07 away from Dan Lungren,
is being challenged by several well-known Republicans.
Tom McClintocks Chief of Staff Igor Birman, Elizabeth Emken, who has run for several positions, Doug Ose (you remember him), the clear-cut hero, and of course Ted Gaines, who is termed out as a State Senator.
Unless Bera makes a terrible mistake, we don't see him losing his seat to any of these people, but he will have to run in November against whoever gets the most votes among these right-wing staunch Republicans .
We see Doug Ose as the likely 2nd vote getter in the primary, simply because of the name being known, not necessarily because people think he would be a good congressman.
We all know that politics is just a lavish game of musical chairs, with little work and a lot of prizes.
