Amazing how this was timed to give Patty a boost on election day. Come tomorrow it will be clear that she is about to join Greg Nickels on the unemployment line. It is going to be nice getting rid of this huge mistake of a Senator on the way to getting rid of the even bigger mistake of a President in 2 years.

I couldn't be more pleased to see that feckless, incompetent, in over his head, squatter in the White House comming to campaign for Murray, and hopefully say a few words on Inslee's behalf too... Unfortunately I don't think the peoples republic of Washington is going to be much help in overturning 'bamacare, and the rest of his idiotic agenda... the ridicule we incur from his visit will resonate with the majority of overly sensitive fascist leftwingnuts that live here.... xDDD

I hope Obama puts in a good word for Inslee as well, that way he'll be toast as well.

A significant PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH OUR GOVERNMENT'S OUT OF CONTROL SPENDING, current and previous administrations. Senator Murray took office in 1992 (18 YEARS) and continues to vote for legislation to TAX AND SPEND. SHE IS PART OF THE PROBLEM ON THE BELTWAY. I highly suspect she is an extreme Far Left PROGRESSIVE instead of following the Democratic Party National platform. Seantor Murray continues to VOTE ALONG PARTY LINES, which is currently at 96.8 %. She will NOT RESPOND DIRECTLY TO QUESTIONS IN CONSTITUENTS EMAILS, but waffle on her "accomplishments". She voted AGAINST THE WILL OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHEN SHE SAID YEA FOR THE MANDATED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE REFORM BILL. She continues to BASH her opponenets and will not discuss current issues. Yep, bring on the President. With his LOW approval ratings, his visit is going to ensure that last nail is hammered into this CAREER POLITICANS coffin.

Wow.......low information voters!!! Truth is, Republicans TRADITIONALLY, create large deficits. Reagan started it in 1980. They create big government contracts and then pass the taxpayers money off to their rich friends. The difference is, Democrats spend the money on the people. Sorry to confuse you with the facts. I know Republicans hate education, but please, don't make yourselves look like uneducated fools.

And I should care because . . . .? Murray is toast. Spend - spend -spend. She has NO idea what a dollar is worth and neither does the President. Birds of a feather.
