Terrible in front of the camera, but behind the scenes he is a wizard.

So King is busy digging up ballots as we speak?

If Rossi said something about his supporters needing second amendment remedies, I'd be inclined to be sympathetic, given his history . . .

Sour grapes is a terrible thing.  Perhaps Rossi might have done better if he spent more time studying the issues.  Then he would not have flubbed his answer about Boeing's tanker contract in front of the Tacoma News Tribune editorial board, a basic WA Politics 101 question any fool should be able to answer.  Or shown his ignorance about Net Neutrality in front of the Seattle Times editorial board.  Murray knew what Net Neutrality was.   Click on the link and watch the 2:17 minute clip entitled "Net Neutrality."

Fortunately, voters in King County understood who the superior candidate was in this race.

The AP has as well.

Dino Rossi has conceded:

With Boxer, Murray, Wyden, Brown and Kitzhaber's victories, the Democrats now control all the U.S. Senate seats and governorships on the west coast.
