DescriptionWASHINGTON — Two California Democrats in Congress urged Sen. Dianne Feinstein (search) on Tuesday to run to replace Gov. Gray Davis (search) in the recall election, shattering united Democratic support for the embattled governor.

Reps. Cal Dooley and Loretta Sanchez said Democrats must have an alternative to Davis on the Oct. 7 ballot and pronounced Feinstein the state's most popular politician.

"It is no secret that Gov. Davis is in trouble, and I seriously doubt that he can survive the recall effort," Dooley said. He made his suggestion about Feinstein in a statement.

"There are many who believe we should have a strong Democrat on that No. 2 question," Sanchez told The Associated Press in an interview.

Voters will face two ballot questions, whether to recall Davis and who could replace him.
