The way I see it the liberal Seattle press gave Locke an eight year pass and never called him on anything. We used to hear monthly updates about how many jobs where lost under Bush (which, of course, thanks to tax cuts we no longer get) but how many jobs where lost in Wa. under Locke????? According to the local media Locke was busy in China couragously selling apples! Now in her first week Jamieson comes out calling her a rascist who refused to lead. And that's from the left. The rest of us are already digging holes in the back yard so we can hide our wallets. I'm just really puzzled by the reaction of the local media. She gave the exact same speech Locke has been giving for years. When Locke makes that speech it's visonary but this time around the Editorial pages are wondering how she plans to pay for all them proposed Gov programs! The Seattle Times Editorial page never laid this stuff on Lockes lap http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/opinion/2002151920_vesely16.html.

So why is the Seattle media laying all this stuff on Gregiore. After all shouldn't we give her a chance?

I'm still trying to figure out why this reaction from the local media since I find it so surprising. It still can't be good for Gregiore!
