Garamendi endorses Durston, says Lungren needs to go

Lieutenant governor and 2010 gubernatorial candidate John Garamendi endorsed Democrat Bill Durston's bid for Congress Friday, while also calling Durston's opponent, U.S. Rep. Dan Lungren (R-Gold River), a draft dodger.

Garamendi said in a video posted on Durston's campaign Web site that he was particularly incensed by mail pieces Lungren's campaign sent out in recent weeks that said Durston vowed not to spend an additional cent on the military if elected.

"He didn't serve in the military, he didn't serve in the Peace Corps," Garamendi said of Lungren. "He took a dive."

Durston said at a forum Thursday night that the mailer's statements were completely inaccurate, while Lungren said they came right from Durston's Web site.

In a video posted on Durston's campaign Web site, Garamendi also said that Lungren doesn't serve his constituents, which includes the San Andreas ranch Garamendi calls home.

Garamendi pointed out, as has Durston, that Lungren avoided serving in the Vietnam War because he claimed a knee problem, though he has not offered any documentation to prove so.

Lungren's father was then-President Richard Nixon's personal physician. Durston is a Vietnam War veteran.

A spokesman for Lungren's campaign found the endorsement unimpressive.

"Nothing unusual here," said spokesman Tim Clark. "This is just one stridently partisan politician endorsing another stridently partisan politician."
