Things are looking up in Washington State! Dino Rossi ahead by 2000 votes and the remaining ballets to be counted are mostly in Pro-Dino counties!!!

Ideas for conservative (fiscal AND SOCIAL) slogans for signs/bumper stickers here in the Evergreen State: [in response to a piece of literature from the Murray campaign stating Nethercutt was "too extreme" for Washington]: Washington: Too extreme for America. If George Nethercutt is out of step with Washington, is Washington out of step with America? Think we're overpopulated? You're part of the population... Washington, the tri-bi*** state. [pending a Rossi loss] Have you "choiced" your unborn kid today?

Posted on Hannity.com: Tuesday October 26, 2004 11:43pm Post subject: True story: democrat stealing Bush sign -- True story: Last Thursday I put out one of my Bush/Cheney signs in my front yard. Between midnight and 3:00 a.m. someone stole it. On Friday night I put out sign No. 2. Since I didn't have to get up early, I thought my dog and I would "stake out" our sign. This time I put the sign a little closer to the gate leading to my backyard.

2004 US Senate Elections These are the states I am watching: Florida: I believe that Martinez will help Bush here. I think Cubans that are having doubts about Bush will support him when they vote for Martinez. I think most Hispanics would like to have Martinez representing them and that will push him past Castor. Castor comes off very old and too loyal to the “party.” And she is in real trouble when she has to explain about how she handled the “terrorist professor” when she was the president of USF. She has been around in politics for over ten...

(Note: I'm going to send out a fundraising email to raise money for George Nethercutt who is running against Patty (ossamamomma)Murray for US Senate. You are welcome and encouraged to use this email or any derivation there off for your own fund raising efforts.) KENNETH FOLEY: USAID Representative On October 28thth, 2002 Kenneth Foley was shot dead in front of his wife in Amman, Jordan by assailants who are now believed under the direction of Ansar al Islam’s Al-Zarqawi. Mr. Foley had a 40 year career working in public service starting as a Peace Corp’s volunteer in India in 1965....

Does anyone have an active url that has a video of the infamous Patty Murray speech praising "Osama as a great philanthropist"? If not a link, then where can I download the video directly to use an attachment in an email? I want to send it out as part of a fund raising email for Nethercutt. These will be non Washington residents so I figure hearing it from the horses mouth is better than just sending a quote to get the blood boiling again. Thanks in advance.

Latest Poll Shows Christine Gregoire (D) at 47%, Dino Rossi (R) 46%, also shows Rob McKenna slightly favored for Attorney General.

Washington State held its primary yesterday, and Larry Klepinger barely edged out Suzanne Sinclair for the nomination to challenge Democrat Rick Larsen for the 2nd Congressional District seat in the U.S. House in November. In a 10-minute conversation with Larry Klepinger at a state fair in August, the discussion ended abruptly when he said "You and I may not agree on this, but I believe a woman should have the final say on abortion." I responded, "Then I think Hitler should have had the final say on the Jews" and wandered off. Now that he is the Republican nominee, I...

Most recent poll puts Patty Murray ahead by 49% to 40%.

Pastoral Letters & Officials Sign of Faith…Bread of Life: A Statement by Alexander J. Brunett, Archbishop of Seattle on Catholic Participation in Political life Summer 2004 Upon ordination as bishop, I took for my Episcopal motto Signum Fidei – Panis Vitae. I adopted these words (sign of faith – bread of life) from John’s Gospel to characterize and guide my ministry because they summarize for me the centrality and powerful reality of the Eucharist in our Catholic faith experience. As we approach the 2004 elections, the bread of life we share at the altar stands at the center of a...

Gannett Fails One-Newspaper Communities/Counties- Port Huron Times Herald a Queue for Government Intervention? In particular, with today’s concentration of all reporting medium with just a few companies- who determines the void or lack of reporting in the best interest to citizens. I’ve challenged a Gannett newspaper, the Times Herald of Port Huron Michigan of its obligation citizens in one-newspaper counties. There appears to be an immediate need to make certain legislation be brought requiring corporate newspapers to better report news and serving the communities they cover. At a crucial time with the 2004 Primary literally days away- this particular newspaper,...

The poll of 600 likely Republican voters in St. Clair County Michigan’s State Representative District 81 countywide found Alloway leading Pavlov by 12 points, 48 percent to 40 percent in a three-way race with Yale Republican Steve Pray Nader included in the ballot test.

“A Michigan Impossible until we work together ending illegal state house electioneering practices” Joe Alloway-R Michigan House District 81 St. Clair County Michigan PORT HURON – JULY 11, 2004 - Please listen to a recent interview (http://66.92.134.175/~benburch/old/TrupianoShow-(10-5-2004).mp3) exposing Michigan’s #1 area to reform and that’s ending illegal activities in Michigan’s House Republican Caucus Communications Office! Very few citizens asked have no idea of what that word means. Folks, the bottom line is we’ve had some major problems in this antiquated, 50-person staffed office and they’re just coming public. Take recent revelations of state employees assigned to representatives as campaign managers...

I just got back last week from driving across the country, I live in Washington State and drove to PA in see my wifes family and took I-80 and I-90 back home. With my Bush/Cheney sticker from 2000 in my back window along with my W-04 sticker I got a aproviel rating of about 75% judging from the honks and thumbs ups from fellow drivers. Funny how I got the 1 finger salute from the folks with the Kerry stickers. My question to you is do you vent your hate and anger at fellow drivers on the road with a...

Last night, I was told that a report was recently published by some DC think-tank. This report ranked members of congress in order of taxpayer-friendliness, i.e. it examined their votes on tax-related bills and determined where any particular member of congress came in on higher or lower taxes for their constituents. The same person who told me about the report told me that a whopping 75% of house and senate members from my state were in the top 20 LEAST friendly to taxpayers in their voting records. Have any of you heard of this report? Can you point me to...

SEATTLE -- The photograph on the front page of Sunday's Seattle Times captured a moment rarely seen publicly since the start of the Iraq war. Coffins holding dead American soldiers, draped with U.S. flags and placed in rows, nearly filled a cargo plane for the journey home to the United States.

I've seen the senate races heating up, but not nearly as much on the house seats. I'm mostly using information from DC POLITICAL REPORT and POLITICS1. STATES Alabama DISTRICT 3 - The other Mike Rogers (R) won in 02 with 50.3% over Democrat Joe Turnham(48.2%) in an open seat. So far, it looks as he is facing Democrat Bill Fuller, Ex-State Human Resources Commissioner. I haven't heard much about this race, but the first defense is hardest. Alaska SENATE - Lisa Murkowski(R) vs Ex governor Tony Knowles. This will be a tough race as Knowles is an ex-governor and Murkowski...

Senate Races to Watch 2004 South Dakota- I expect this one to be a barnburner. Thune is back and now there is a third party candidate (Tim Giago) that leans towards Daschle’s ideology. The Indian reservations in SD have been a haven for democratic votes and Tim Johnson owes his re-election to them. But now that an Indian candidate has applied to run, the Democrats are in trouble here. I expect Bush to visit often and the Republicans to put great effort into this race. The only thing that bothers me is the Janklow factor. He has done some damage...

Journalists, political pundits and other Hysteric Left activists are desperately trying to spin some cosmic significance out of Sunday's Spanish elections. The "conventional wisdom" is that the Spanish Election results are some sort of significant defeat for President Bush and the War on Terror. As usual the "News Media's" thinking is neither conventional nor wise. What all the various activists miss is the reality of American Exceptionalism. As much as the International Political Left hates, and try's to deny, the reality is the USA operates on a completely different political level then the rest of the world. On Sunday, the...
