To: Libertarianize the GOP
It gets better.

One of the key Democratic arguments against a revote is that the Washington State Constitution says that the governor must be elected with the legislature. Let's say that the Democrats are correct. To make a revote constitutional, wouldn't that simply require putting the legislative races of 2004 on the same revote ballot with the gubernatorial race?

If this is a correct legal argument and if I were a Democratic legislator, I'd be scared $hitless at the anger of the electorate come revote day. Rossi would not only win, he would bring in a solidly Republican legislature.

It would sure be nice to not have to wait four years to get rid of Jim Kastama.

Heh... and one of the first things they'll address is ballot/voter registration reform.
