I have no faith in the GOP having any voice in Washington state anymore.
100's of thousands of ex-Californians have moved up to Seattle right into those 5 counties. And what really just blows you away is that all these California refugees moved up here because of the mess the liberal democrat politicians have made in California THAT THEY VOTED INTO OFFICE FOR DECADES. The swarm of illegal aliens taking over, the high taxes, the poor education, the cost of living, the poor healthcare from all the illegals bankrupting the system, the politicians putting the representation of freaks and welfare hounds over working families. Every californian who now lives up here I met is always bitching about these as reasons why they moved up to Seattle.
And what do they do when the come up here?
They vote for politicians like Maria Cantwell, Patty Murry Baghdad Jim McDermott, and Christine Gregorie.
Starting the whole process of destruction all over again. And when they wreck Washington, they'll find the next up and coming city, and move there and start the destruction all over again.
Liberal californians are like the aliens from the movie Independence day. The move from place to place burning a political path of destruction where every they go.
In defense of *native* Californians: Hogwash! I am certain you will find that the most of the liberals wreaking havoc on Washington State are originally from Massachusetts, Minnesota or New York - Eastern or Midwestern liberals who made the trek West in search of "better opportunities" for their families. And no, the "gold in them th'ar hills" today is just fool's gold. The *real* gold has long since been washed away by clean Marxist/Leninist propaganda sold to the highest bidder on US College Campi(the proper plural of campus [Lat.]), or to the average churchgoer under the form of Liberation Theology.
Republican? What? The Party of Lincoln? Oh, yes, I remember; that's the party that gave us this huge gluttonous behemoth of centralized power and control we call the Federal Government....oink, oink! Americans are all too busy feeding at the public trough - but, they'll wake up when the slaughter begins, alas, but too late.
And let's not forget the Washington state holds the distinction of having the most notorious Wobblies in the world - anybody remember the "Soviet" of Washington? Californians did not do this to Washington; Washingtonians are to blame. By all means, take personal responsibility - that's the Republican way... Or is it?

HEY! And even Clark County came out somewhat Redder in the last general! Oh ye of little faith who roll over with all four legs in the air! We can do it only if we think we can, like the Little Engine! Repulicans, remember - If we don't pull together, we fall apart!
