Slog - Comments on Gregoire to Endorse Obama http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/02/gregoire_to_endorse_obama Got the same call. Gregoire will be at the Obama rally at Key Arena today. No other conclusion to draw but that our governor will endorse Obama....

This is one case where I am happy to be proven incorrect. Nice going Gregoire.

Don't matter if they're left wing or right wing (a surprising amount of my students are right wing evangelicals), I just think it will be a great experience for all of them.

HA HA HA HA !!!

Not terribly significant, IMHO, but still surprising.

Rotten: Good job on abusing your position of authority to help your candidate of choice. Keep at it.

The bus run after half hour and the bus reached capacity in the udist. Dozens of waiting people have been driven by. The driver contacted metro hoping to get an extra bus or two on the route.

Ahem. That is to say, that's awesome. Besides, does anyone really listen to Gary Locke? (Did anyone ever?)

Don't worry, from past experience, arrive by 11:30 to clear security, speeches start at Noon, figure 1 pm is end of critical speeches/endorsements but lots of sign up stuff after that.

I'm driving (bad bad eco man ...) but it's a time thing.

Lot of the youth vote (aka the "yes we can...skip class" crowd).

I didn't want her to endorse my candidate, but that's what happens when you're surging ahead. All the riff raff jumps on the bandwagon.
