I too have multiple votes for McKenna and am tilting towards supporting him for Gov as well.
All you RWWJ's take note, your favorite "libtards" are looking seriously at the "R" candidate... I wonder if you are similarly open minded?
Do we think he will he be supportive of the progress that rec. fishing has made versus non-tribal commercials? B
Guess you did not read my earlier post. "He gets it" from someone who knows. or you can roll the dice with a guy who took money from the tribes. So which candidate is likely to continue the long/short term gasoline deal? If that issue can be changed? Which candidate, will undermine the commission, since the tribes oppose selective fishing and clipping fish.
Our commission appointments are critical.
If you can grab a video of a recent debate, youll see, their is just no comparison between the two men. Its the platitude vs. the detailed plan, of McKenna. He has shown without a doubt, he has done his homework. Im a fiscal conservative and the rest of it is always driven by specifics. To assume that their are no financial issues in the capital, is an overwhelming trust of politicians. Hes good on the law. Hes good on the fish and hes got plans for government operations/budget that we need to get a handle on.
I have concluded, character is more important than promises. I dont want a candidate to promise me, what he thinks I want to hear. We survived over 20 years of pet projects and robbing peter to fund paul. I think, we can do a lot better with McKenna. There is no substance to Inslee. Its always the same talking points, about jobs, green energy, his book, etc, but no specifics and probably too much gov and more taxes. The state has no money and the way these green industries are folding, its unlikely, any private investor will stick his neck out, for any governor. Which guy do you want to do business with, if you are overseas and the gov asks you to come back. Who has those endorsements? Far too much emphasis is put on the ideology of these candidates. We have a fairly blue legislature and the last time it went red, was 94 and it lasted for about 2 years. Its pretty safe to say the unions control the legislature are the taxpayers better off ?
This state would not know a new idea, that the taxpayers didnt have to fund. There is no doubt in my mind, who has a plan and who is here for the title. Massachussetts survived Romney[4] and William Weld [8]. I dont remember anyone around here putting any former Wa governors on a pedestal for the sake of history and a template of how government should be run. Do you?
