What frosted my butt almost as much as the cheating was the 'Pub Secretary of State lying down for the 'Rats and "certifying" the fraudulent result. He should have had the guts to tear up Fraudoire's certificate and let the chips fall where they may. Instead he groveled and then had the gall to say that Rossi should accept the consolation prize of running for King County commissioner, a race where everyone knew he had no chance, and even if he did win it would have been a meaningless, powerless office in the face of seven or eight 'Rat votes against you.
The national 'Pub party did little to help Rossi in the Governor's race even though they convinced him to take the kamikaze ride. So he is cheated out of the Governor's seat and gets a one-way ticket to palookaville.
