Using the new math introduced by the Democrats and Christine Gregoire, a 42-vote loss is really a tie. Given that formula, the Seattle Seahawks are really for all intent and purpose undefeated – pending a recount by the NFL.

Just as the play of the Seahawks is pathetic, so is the behavior of the politicians in this state. Both are insulting to the residents of this state, both are self serving and both get paid despite their poor performance. All they have to do is show up at game time. Really pathetic.
