I saw a news report the other day where a washington state lawmaker IIRC was threatening legal action if Boeing didn’t win this. Anyone know where that was?
News reports say that Boeing is expected to file a formal protest.
In a related story, it will be interesting to see how quickly the awarding of this contract is tied to the Don Siegelman/Karl Rove/Bob Riley consiracy theory. The nutjobs in Alabama are working overtime and since the nice state with the good Democratic senators lost to the evil state with the vile Republican senators, I’m betting the Congressional hearings are not far behind.
In the P I the story says:
SNIP . . ..Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire said earlier this week during a visit to Washington, D.C., that she was optimistic about a Boeing win, but raised the possibility of a congressional inquiry or formal protest if it did not.
