Crazy prediction?

Once in a while, I get a feeling. Sadly, most of the time I don't write them down and end up saying, "I told you so!" Well here it it:

I predict that Gregoire gets a Federal Judgeship and leaves her post as Governor, Rossi comes back and runs (3 times a charm), and Rob McKenna takes on Murray for the US Senate.

Call me crazy ... what are your thoughts?

WA State - Dem's Propose Budget

[read the Olympian article here]
The state budget has been released by the Dems up on the hill, and you guessed it, doom and gloom with the need for a TAX INCREASE.
While families all over the state are cutting back, your state government wants to increase their total spending. The state budget proposed will spend more money in the next two years than the last two. How many of you are able to spend more now? I bet you are really finding ways to cut back. Government needs to do the same.
The budget comes with the same tired scare techniques. The legislators are warning that they will have to cut funding from public schools, higher education, health care, elder care and disabled, corrections, the environment, and they will even have to scrap two planes owned by the WA State Patrol.
And this is what government is doing, so it is only fair that we increase your car tabs by $5.00.
I have a terrible memory, but I remember when the people of WA told the state that we were tired of being taxed on car tabs and reduced the fee to $30.00. And remember all the doomsday talk at the time? Legislators warned us that police, fire, education would all be non-existent. Guess what? We survived.
I would like to see government do their best impression of Lehman Brothers. Put all of your belongings in a box and go look for another job, please. The people of Washington state will get along just fine without you. We don't need a nanny, and if we did we wouldn't hire you.

Rossi Sign Defaced in West Olympia

This past weekend, vandals attacked three large political signs in West Olympia. The political signs are in support of Dino Rossi in his race for Governor. Scott Roberts, the event coordinator said, "We really wanted to project a positive message that is reflective of how we feel about Dino Rossi. It's too bad that the opposition has to stoop this low. Why don't they just support their candidate of choice? This is mean-spirited politics at its worst." The vandalism is on the heels of the controversy surrounding BIAW for installing billboards in Eastern Washington. The billboards said "Don't let Seattle Steal This Election." and were denounced by both the Rossi and Gregoire campaigns. Roberts said, "I think the billboards in Eastern Washington created such controversy because there is a certain element of truth to it. We really wanted to stay away from controversy and promote a positive message about Rossi. It's sad that the opposition had to resort to vandalism. It doesn't speak highly of their candidate."

Rossi will Restore Inegrity

Since this letter is so short, I've included it in this post.

"What a sweet deal Gov. Chris Gregoire negotiated for herself with the state’s Indian tribes. She killed a 2005 compact that would have brought millions to the state coffers from tribal gambling. In exchange, the tribes have contributed hundreds of thousands to her campaign.
As democratic Sen. Ken Jacobsen put it, “Why would you give someone a monopoly without taking a cut?”
A sweet deal indeed — for everyone but the taxpayers. In 2008, vote Dino Rossi to restore integrity to the governor’s office!
Dennis Anderson, Lacey"

The reported amount that Gregoire saved the Tribes was in the range of $150 million per year. Re-elect Rossi!

Change Gregoire

Christine Gregoire has worked 39 years in government. She has never had a private sector job. It's time for a change. Yes we can!
