ABSTRACT

Reports that the swearing-in last week of Dianne Feinstein as California's new senator--less than a week after her lopsided election victory--has bruised the feelings of her predecessor, John Seymour, and the 36 members of his staff. Why the members were rushed out in three days; Feinstein inherited 2,000 items of casework on behalf of constituents.
