Diane Feinstein, for all her faults (and there are many) is the devil we know, same as the incumbent POTUS. -- So let's deal with the 800-lbs gorilla in the room: Democrats acting like Republicans. DiFi and Obama are both (the former enthusiastically and the latter more moderately) in the "blue dog" camp, which is a Democrat who is willing to court votes on the right, wants to appear business friendly and will often vote in spite of the will of the party constituency (or at least stated orthodoxy).
