Being neither Democrat nor Republican, I truly believe that both parties need to admit that this race has been a fiasco. The ending to this race proves that our government officials really do not care what the people think, believe or want. They only believe in what the parties want.
If both parties were to take a good look at the requests, they would note that the voters want a re-vote and they want this for one reason only, so that they can have faith in the system again. But this will not happen and because it will not, the politicians lose more of the voters’ respect and faith.
Now it is time to put the whole thing aside and get on with living in our wonderful state. However, Christine Gregoire should be cautioned to watch her step, as the voters still have the power to remove her. And in this new job, she won’t be able to blame her office staff.
