Again: "Try familiarizing yourself with the electoral history of Seattle -- where a conservative's vote is the equivalent of Kleenex in a blast furnace -- and then get back to me, mm'kay?"

Too difficult? Too bad.

As another “conservative in exile” here in the Seattle Area, my non-vote for Romney did NOT affect his election chances. AT ALL. My vote for all the folks with an “R” after their name for everything from Governor down to City Dog Catcher also was to no avail. I thought we had a chance with Governor and some of the other State positions.

And it is also disheartening to see all of the money that I donated to the local races end up on the losing side. But - we try to do what we can.
