Make every vote count, but only if it's a Democrat, huh?

Under Washington's new "top two" primary system, Rossi was allowed to pick how he wanted to be identified.

So, is there anything in this system that prevents him to do that?

The Demorats mislead the public every day by not calling themselves what they are (Socialists).

Local polling has shown some voter confusion about the Republican nickname GOP, an abbreviation for Grand Old Party.

Yes, folks, there are people here in my home state of WA that are that stupid!

I couldn’t figure out why Rossi’s party ID was different than every other Republican on the ballot when I got mine and this still doesn’t explain it.

In my county there were so many races without Republicans in them at all that I just wrote my own name into about 12 races. Oddly, I didn’t win any of them.

There are more people in this state that prefer Rossi then prefer Gregoire. And the majority know he got that election stolen from him. The problem is there are people who like him, but vote sraight line Democrat because they have a bias against the Republican brand. Rossi’s simply using the new law to advantage by whitewashing the brand so it’s his name alone appealing to people. Democrats obviously wouldn’t want that to happen, but they helped with the law so who are they to complain now that it doesn’t work to their favor?

Is thre anybody in Washington who doesn't know who Rossi is by now? Is there anybody who doesn't know what party he's with?

"The lawsuit argues that there are only two major political parties recognized under Washington law and that Reed should not have allowed a nickname."

So all those Independent Party, Constitutional Party, American Socialist, and Communist Party candidates listed in my voters pamphlet shouldn't be there? Damn. Someone shoulda' told 'em.

The Washington rat knows his own. He knows some of his troope are stupid and might vote for Rossi thinking he is also a member of the same troope. Isn’t it funny how close races force the rat to honesty?
