Outlook on politics and elections in the state of Washington from an overall centrist viewpoint. My views tend to be libertarian in nature, but at the same time are largely nonpartisan.
I finally got around to getting the site I house all my graphics on rehosted, so the background is now back and I put up a link under downloads for a spreadsheet of select local races this fall. Enjoy the green.

I like to think that I'm a rarity in blogging, in that I'm a political nerd who doesn't have a partisan axe to grind in everything they write. I considered myself a Republican up until 2004 when I finally had enough of their bible-based politics, yet still harbour a deep dislike of the Democratic Party because of their ties to labour groups as well as their tendency to bloat budgets. Ideologically I'm somewhere between centrist and libertarian. On economics I fit neatly in the centre-right, while on social issues I can be fairly radical. And no, I'm not British. It's just that I can respect that they created our language and know how to write it properly.

I think if he had chosen to run last year he probably would have won. In any case, he'd be the strongest possible Democratic nominee in my opinion. If 2008 leans Democratic at the federal level, he very well could win. After all, I think one of the tools Reichert used so well against Burner was the experience issue, and since Ross will have served three terms in the House by then I don't think Reichert could effectively argue that point.
