washington is a democratic state where (shocker!) the democrats have completely abandoned their voters to enact a right wing agenda. that makes this state is ripe for a teabagging.
Washington has the 4th highest union density in the nation,(at about 20% of the workforce) after New York, Alaska and Hawaii. If McKenna takes on Labor, it'll make the Wisconsin protests look milquetoast in comparison. They don't have the ILWU (a fine, militant, democratic, honest labor union) in Wisconsin.
