SEATTLE -- Republican candidate for governor Dino Rossi is still receiving protection from the Washington State Patrol.

The patrol says it's continuing the protection for Rossi and his family because of the "contentiousness" of the close election race. Republicans still hope to set aside the election of Governor Gregoire and have a revote.

The patrol says it will re-evaluate the protection for Rossi on a daily basis.


LOL. Just another way this fiscal conservative is burning up our tax dollars.

7. He must be B-1 Bob Dornan's long-lost brother
He hounded Loretta Sanchez for AGES..and still claims that she "stole" HIS congressional seat by getting illegals to vote for her..

Apparently Ole Bob didn't realize that over the years his district just changed ..and the newer distribution of people hated his guts :)

4. They're protecting him from his own party
"You were SUPPOSED to get enough votes that we could steal it!" <blam, blam, blam>

It's either that or he's on a Suicide Watch.

9. Gregoire got a death threat recently
link: http://komo4.com/stories/35113.htm

"Gregoire told reporters Thursday that she received a death threat and that she plans to keep a lid on publicizing her movements outside the heavily guarded Capitol and Governor's Mansion."

Cannot stand Rossi the whiner. The idiot repubs want to recall their own Sam Reed as well since he certified Gregoire. They eat their own.

10. Since Rossi is so deeply concerned about the fundamental flaw
in the voting process in WA State, why is he so fucking silent about the over 3000 voting flaws in Ohio?
Why isn't Rossi and other Republicans who are so concerned screaming for a revote in Ohio?
