In any case I think he'll talk about clean energy but be silent on the coal ports issue.

BTW: Always voting Democrat because "they're better than the other guy" leaves us with Democratic governors that don't do shit for us progressives, because they know we'll support 'em no matter what. Of course, I'm being hypocritical: "He's better than the other guy" was the #1, 2, & 3 reasons I voted for Inslee.

One way she could have interpreted the results is that the voters liked Dino Rossi's platform so much that they almost elected him instead. The margin of victory was so small, it would be rational to conclude that, had a random event such as a weather pattern occurred slightly differently, Rossi would have won and not Christine Gregoire.

So she set out on a conservative path. When she faced the same opponent four years later, she won much more handily. This must have felt like an affirmation by the voters that she had indeed chosen the right course. Such an affirmation would also be a prescription for more of the same.

So of course she governed in a very conservative manner.

What the hell, I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment, but I'll take Inslee at his word. Time for a progressive governor.
