The one, big problem I have with Cao is that he's stated that he's firmly anti-abortion. THAT is definitely a step backwards for women. Otherwise though, he's said that he's fairly open on a variety of issues. Whether that's really true, we'll see -- I'm worried that his strongest backing is coming from his church. The major problem was that the Dems had not been able to come up with a decent challenger to Jefferson-- he ran against Helena Moreno in the primaries, who ran a really lackluster campaign-- I thought she was a good candidate, but she didn't perform well in the primary.
