Here's hoping justice will be served and that Gregoire will get herself out of Governor Rossi's office.

Last night I saw the 1976 movie Carrie. It's not the first time I saw it, but anyway, the way the kids threw away some ballots and replaced them with fake ballots reminded me of the election for governor in Washington --- and, of course, similar electoral practices in rat precincts all over the country.

My own prediction is that that Rossi's re-vote request will be thrown out, and the republicans will win in Washington in the next election cycle. No Washington state official could admit the the vote was tainted by vote fraud. It would open up a rat's nest that would cause the state prisons to overflow.

Praise God! Maybe GW will take notice and appoint him to a supreme court position.

I think the most satisfactory detail -- if Gregoire is removed -- will be the consternation and figurative (alas, not literal) wrist-slashing that will go on at DU etc, and hearing the Hollyier-Than-Thous from the entertainment industry shoot off their mouths.

In the long run, it'll be better if the challenge is turned back, because that will blow back against the Dims starting next year in the Washington elections. Gregoire will be tainted by her illegitimacy. True, she and her cadre in the legislature will cause some damage while they remain in power, but their extremism will alienate their old base.

If the challenge goes forward and results in Gregoire's removal, the blowback will be directed at Republicans in Washington state.
