Sandra Fluke Loses Election 2-1 in Liberal District

Sandra-Fluke-Barack-Obama

If only someone had paid for her birth control all this could have been avoided.

Sandra Fluke, the liberal activist who made headlines in February 2012, is headed for defeat in her campaign to become a member of the California State Legislature.

In early returns, Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District Board Member Ben Allen led Fluke by a nearly 2-1 margin in the 26th State Senate race.

The race to fill the 26th district seat being vacated by incumbent Democrat Ted Lieu was down to the wire, with both Fluke and Allen–who won the primary in June–raising well over $1 million each.

Fluke had briefly considered running for the 33rd congressional district seat left open by veteran Democrat Henry Waxman’s retirement, but was talked out of it by party elders who urged her to aim for more modest political goals.

She could have only won by a fluke and none came along. Maybe Obama should have come out there to campaign for her. It’s not like anyone else seemed to want his help.

At least there’s always an MSNBC gig in her future. Or maybe Al Jazeera America.

    Let’s hope this defeat means we won’t have to hear about Sandra Fluke ever again.

    Maybe Obama can make her Condom Czar.

    One would think that with her law degree, she’d be busy filing nuisance lawsuits, before dabbling in politics.

    Back to lawyering Sandy! BTW, have you been able to pay for your birth control? Hope that element of your life is working out. But not from my pocket, please.

      You mean that she would even have an opportunity to NEED birth control? Who knew or would have suspected? Pas moi.

        In my typical chauvinistic style, I would characterize Sandra as a “bag job”. I would certainly not find the need to engage Ms. Fluke sexually – under ANY circumstance!

        However, having said that I would expect that there are men out there who might be so desperate, so deprived, that she might be a tempting “hook up” target. In which case we want to be sure that the birth control is engaged.

        Sandra’s gene pool is one we want to discontinue; so the birth control should be a strong element to insure there are no more little Flukes running around.
