This might be yet another chapter in the long running saga of the law of unintended consequences. Ashcroft and Thune are but a few. In the long run it was much better for Thune to lose the first election only to unseat Daschle in the second. I'm sure with Ashcroft as AG a few more on the left needed to visit their shrink.

My thoughts exactly. Daschle may end his days cursing how "fortunate" it was that Thune lost two years ago, and how that "fortune" helped unseat Daschle. If the morons had anything resembling intelligence left, they would lean on Gregoire to quietly go away so that Cantwell will have a chance in 2006. Otherwise the Republicans (gasp) may gain yet ANOTHER Senate seat! It's just so delicious to see them caught in a steel trap with doom approaching. They might yet escape, but they have to amputate something first.

Ah, yes....just like with W's Dad losing his second term, opening the way for W to have a two term presidency...

The Lord works in strange, but ALWAYS GLORIOUS ways!

Four words....method to the madness :-)

Gregopire is in big trouble. She will be recalled if she does win the election.

I'm sorry folks, as wonderful as you think this might be for unseating Cantwell:

1. It probably won't happen because she will win by fraud AGAIN, in broad daylight.

2. We need a Gov. with some sense of how to fix the business climate here, NOW! Dino is that choice.

Never forget that the Cantwell personal fortune was 'earned' by planting crapware on innocent computers: Real Player.

Maria Cantwell - what has she done in the last four years? How about nothing! but Washingtonians will probably elect her again - she is a woman Democrat, after all!

The Democrats redistricted George Allen out of Congressional seat, if I remember correctly. He went on to become Governor, then Senator, and in the future, who knows?

The crats can play their games, but the will of the people will eventually find a way to be done.

So the gist of the argument seems to be, lie down and take one in the butt because of fraud in the hopes of "winning" a consolation prize? Nothing like playing for second place, I guess. Sounds like a strategy for losers.
