This is the same senator who is widely reported to be 'not all there' mentally. Not sure if her endorsement means much at the moment....

My first memory of her is a speech she gave with Clinton in the early 90s at the Alameda Naval Air Station promising not to close it. Both her and Clinton soon supported closing it. I wouldn't say her endorsement has meant much to me ever
Really?

It's an empty promise anyway, there's a commission that was created for the sole purpose of preventing politicians from doing precisely what Feinstein was promising and attempting to do, continuing to fund a military base that no longer makes sense from a national level in order to provide funds for their district.

Someone that makes an empty promise sounds exactly like the kind of person I should ignore when they endorse things.
First time I remember seeing her was when she announced the death of Mayor Moscone and Harvey Milk.
