Word from the downtown Seattle event is that the two ladies are falling all over themselves to bash President Bush, repeatedly referencing a countdown until he is out of office. The real question is, does Gregoire realize this same countdown applies to her?

Funny how our President, after 8 years in office, won’t even be on the ballot, but our incumbent Governor can’t seem to give it up. Her radio commercials breathlessly mention his name, trying to draw comparisons between the President of the United States and Dino Rossi.

The Democrats' obsession with President Bush has become clinical. Gregoire's excessive focus on our President has to make you wonder whether she is compensating for her own lack of pride in Washington State.

It’s time we let the real countdown begin: 110 days until we elect John McCain and re-defeat Christine Gregoire in Washington State.
