that’s crazy!
Does that mean Brad Owen will be our next governer?
Article 3 Section 10 of the state constitution?
the only bright spot is no dino rossi.
Where is the PowerPoint presentation connecting the dots from the Stranger’s Election Board to the O’ministration?
(And I am copyrighting the phrase “O’ministration”)

Hello, Gov Dino in 2010! Yes, that’s right, Rossi will be elected in the special election in Nov 09. Yay for Washington!
I’m still thinking it’ll be an announcement of government money pouring in to our state to help with our infrastructure which I suppose means the Alaskan Way Viaduct and the 520 bridge.
At least 3/4 of the money will be earmarked for more “studies.” Because Lord knows we haven’t studied the problem enough yet. /sarc.
More studies? Can’t they just buy the Cliff Notes?
Gregoire is in DC getting $$$ for roads. Outside of Rossi/GOP fanatics, this is generally considered to be a “good thing.”
What about Bill Richardson?
Why did he flee Washington…quickly?
What was the “Terrible Secret” he could not reveal to Inquiring Senators ??!
Fuck Rossi.
Fuck Richardson.
Gregoire is squeaky-clean, and I am thrilled that she is hitting the big time.
Hmm… a reason to doubt that she’s there getting viaduct and 520 bridge funds is that Obama is focusing on a stimulus plan (giving out tax cuts) possibly at the expense of dealing with infrastructure as previously hinted at…. not sure that that’s a good thing.
But, anyway, cheers to Gregoire! Hope the brain drain won’t hurt the state if she’s indeed tapped for the O’ministration.
I like how this story-which-isn’t-a-story-yet has ten Slog posts already, none of which contain anything.
She’s with Waldo!
10a.m. announcement now, including the REQUIRED interview with King5 to follow. Since she’s getting interviewed by local news outfits, I’m saying infrastructure or boeing at this point.
It’s on the news: She’s in Iraq meeting with our Nat’l Guard troops.
Visiting national guard troops in Iraq…
KUOW just reported that she’s visiting National Guard troops in Iraq. My question is, why all the the drama and secrecy? And here I was panicking about the possibility of Governor Brad Owen. She owes me a night of sleep.
Christine Gregoire is a two-faced liar and a complete loser. If you like Gregoire, you obviously like being lied to and fucked from behind. Hope you don’t keep your wallet back there.
Fuck Gregoire.
