why is there a need for Howard Berman and Brad Sherman to get into such a pissing match with each other? There's pretty much negligible difference between the two. They both have nearly identical voting records and have a similar ethnic heritage.
Couldn't one of them have ran in another district to avoid an intra-party battle?
As was said, Berman's "East Valley" district was transformed into one that would only elect someone brown in color. This is the only CD in the area that would elect either, and even if one tried a different district, he'd still have to contend with another Democratic incumbent.
he could have won the East Valley district. In the 90s, he represented a 65% Hispanic district.
