I did not have to wait long......
I wrote the previous post without having read the Sunday Times/PI paper.
In it I found this article: Liberals hope Gregoire will repay support
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002138165_gregoire02m.html
If Gregoire owed anyone, it is Logan; but that kind of friendship does not make you any points.
The fact that the Time's reporter David Postman thinks that liberals pushed Gregoire over the top, makes me wonder what planet he is on.
David, NEWFLASH!!! 136,000+ voters voted for both J. Kerry and P. Murray but did not vote for Gregoire.
This should not have been a close race, Gregoire should have won by 100,000 votes easy.
Liberals are Gregoire's base and liberals were Kerry's base. Liberals voted for Gregoire but that is not enough for her to win. In fact, like the rest of the nation, you have to appeal to more than just your base to win.
