lol. No one still knows who Inslee is. I'm surprised that Gregoire leads Reichert.... her approval ratings have gone up.... not that is saying much....

Seems a little too good to be true. McKenna definitely needs a stronger lead right now, considering Republicans tend to over poll in Washington this early.

Not exactly sure what's wrong with Reichert. Between his oddly small 2010 victory against a nobody (he did better in 2008 even) and his terrible polling statewide, he doesn't seem to be doing too well. I've always thought he was a terrible person and a terrible Congressman, so it's hard for me to gauge what might have changed.

With the reelection of Maria Cantwell and Obama on the race Jay is within 2-3 as of right now, he will be able to get a bump in his campaign when election day comes around.
