the fallacy here is that Rossi is a really good candidate that came close because of this, not because Gregoire ran a terrible campaign, and that Washington is just as willing to elect a Republican as Senator than governor, which as many states have proven is not true. If William Weld and Tony Knowles couldn't win, a guy who won by 42 votes if you consider him the winner can't.

well the original county had him winning by 42 votes. So if he can only beat someone who ran a terrible campaign by 42 votes for Governor, I don't see why he'd have a great chance against a reasonably popular incumbent for Senate (where voters are more partisan)
