I’m with you. She is “my” senator too and as far as I am concerned shje is worthless. I wrotte and called today when I read of her “no filibuster” comment.
I sent her an email this morning letting her know how disappointed I am.
Her email form address: http://feinstein.senate.gov/email.html
I’m not so shocked as a liberal that she would be more conservative than me, but this is her signature issue, the very reason she’s there, and now…. nothing.
The question is real: Why is she in the Senate? What is she trying to accomplish that she would allow this to happen without a fight?
Let them know where you stand: if Repug, tell them “No” to Alito; if Democrat: FILIBUSTER!

She has a major conflict of interest. . .her husbands defense contracting business. So I can’t see her rocking the boat over anything to disturb those big bucks comming in.
Also “my” senator. I write to complain early and late, for all the good it does.
Writing is good. Supporting Primary Challengers is better.
