- <p>Female candidates who could make 1990 a vintage year:
- </p>
- <p> Diane Feinstein - Democrat; California Governor?
- </p>
- <p> She's talking tough on capital punishment and carrying the
- pro-choice banner, but faces a tough primary and then
- Republican Senator Pete Wilson.
- </p>
- <p> Claudine Schneider - Republican; Rhode Island Senator?
- </p>
- <p> An independent-minded Congresswoman who could convince
- voters that it's time to retire the stuporific Claiborne Pell.
- </p>
- <p> Josie Heath - Democrat; Colorado Senator?
- </p>
- <p> A surprising liberal primary candidate for the state's open
- seat, the former Boulder County commissioner can expect trial
- by negative ads this summer.
- </p>
- <p> Ann Richards - Democrat; Texas Governor?
- </p>
- <p> She triumphed in a mud-slinging primary, and can keep
- smiling if opponent Clayton Williams keeps putting his boot on
- his mouth.
- </p>
- <p> Lynn Martin - Republican; Illinois Senator?
- </p>
- <p> After five congenial terms in the House, she has the
- gumption to oppose Paul Simon. This New-Deal-man vs.
- Republican-woman contest is a model for the '90s.
- </p>
- <p> Patricia Saiki - Republican; Hawaii Senator?
- </p>
- <p> The only Republican ever elected to the House from Hawaii,
- she met last week with George Bush, who urged her to seek the
- late Spark Matsunaga's seat.
