We’ve got Cantwell, Gregoire, McDermott, and Murray. Haven’t we suffered enough?

My apologies — Kucinich must be a lurker.

It is very hard to beat an incumbent, especially in a primary.

I figured it had to be a state that would have a seat liberal enough that Kucinich could win, but would also have to have a free seat available. The disadvantage from K’s perspective is that WA draws district by commission rather than the legislature. The legislature can modify the commission’s plan with a 2/3 majority which the Dems do not have.

I’m thinking the new seat will have an Olympia focus. Thurston and Pacific Counties voted Dem last time out, so it would make sense to drop them from the 3rd.
