They didn't endorse Feinstein because she's too far to the Right of what they want...

California Democrats decline to endorse Feinstein
The party elects not to give its backing to the state's senior senator.

...:A centrist Democrat, Feinstein has long maintained an uneasy relationship with activists who dominate state party conventions, and the vote this weekend — while embarrassing — was not unexpected. The result followed two days of lobbying by the candidates in convention speeches and throughout the convention halls.

Here, but occasionally There.
Perhaps we need to refer to him as "Kevin de Loon?"

On another thought, some Dems may be feeding on other Dems. Or at least, calling for their ouster/resignation. There is that woman in CA that was prominently featured as a #metoo "leader" that has been accused of sexual offenses. Some want her out but she refuses to resign in spite of the fact that she called for anyone accused of being a sexual offender having to resign. Plus, the U.S. House Representative from Nevada (I think) that is facing accusations as well.

And, those are just the tip of the iceberg. I think that before long, rank and file Dems will want Hillary investigated and prosecuted if for no other reason that that she has hurt the Democratic Party for her own gain.
