Comments on About Those Obama-Rossi Voters

Wow. This makes completely no sense. So far people say they like Obama for a few random reasons - a common thread is that they don't like Palin.

Now people are voting against Gregoire because of the Sonics? Didn't our city vote against spending tax dollars on pro-sports?

"Choice issues on a state level are irrelevant."

Tell that to South Dakota.

One would hope she learned her lesson from her horrible 2004 campaign, but apparently not.

Rossi a straight shooter? That's one of the dumbest things I've heard so far! Is that why he lists his party as GOP!?!

It unfortunate that the Gov. race is so close because Gregoire has been our best governor since Dan Evans.
