STOEN COLD CANDIDACY: He was in -- then, just as quickly, he was out. In the wake of his brief run for the U.S. Senate, Assistant District Attorney Tim Stoen -- the self-described "one-day wonder" -- leaves behind a stir that may last much longer than the campaign itself. On Thursday, Stoen came out of the gates strong, saying that his candidacy for the Republican nomination for the Senate seat now held by Barbara Boxer would shine a light on the effort to recall Gallegos and the Pacific Lumber Co.'s dirty tricks; a pro-lifer, he also said abortion would be a key plank in his platform. Pacific Lumber CEO Robert Manne said Stoen's candidacy proved that the DA office's lawsuit against the company was "politically motivated." On Saturday, Stoen called it quits -- he said that the entry of former California Secretary of State Bill Jones into the race on Friday meant that pro-lifers would be represented.

It's funny how Stoen so completely tips his own hand. he talks about "dirty tricks" and "political motivation," two terms which so completely describe him and what he was up to.
