California: New Assemblywoman already facing recall threats

Here's an article (from a progressive) calling for the recall of Assemblywoman Patty Lopez (D), calling Lopez "functionally illiterate in both English and Spanish," and complaining about her joining with Republicans on issues, and hiring anti-gay staffers connected with very conservative Republicans. The author apparently feels that Lopez is obligated by a rule (perhaps from the Democratic caucus?) to hire Democrats as a staff. Here's more on it as well.
