Got some questions for Dino?
Washington State voters have ringside seats for a rematch of the closest Governor's race in the history of the United States. If 65 voters change their mind, Washington could elect a new governor in 2008.

At Fuse, we believe that voters are looking to support a candidate that shares their values. We also happen to believe that most Washington voters agree on some basic progressive principles -- that everyone deserves affordable healthcare, a great education, and a clean, safe environment.

Of course, to make the right choice, voters need to know where the candidates stand on these issues, and that's been a bit of a challenge with Dino Rossi. Dino's been an artful dodger when it comes to answering some pretty basic questions, and there is real reason to believe that he's far more conservative than we've been led to believe.

That's why we're asking for your help to figure out where Dino Rossi stands on some critical issues. If you help us come up with a list of questions for Dino, we won't rest until we get answers. Tell us what you think the voters should know:

Dino has a track record of dodging basic questions:


During his campaign in 2004, Rossi consistently refused to give his position on reproductive choice, claiming that the governor had no impact on the right to choose.

In 2005, Rossi refused to answer any questions about his position on I-912, which would have eliminated the gas tax that was paying for transportation infrastructure improvements.

In 2007, Rossi refused to directly state a position on ANY of the statewide ballot measures, including I-960, R-67, and Simple Majority for Schools.

We can't let Dino run another campaign where he avoids talking about the real issues Washington voters care about. That's why we're asking for your help. What do you want to know about where Dino stands?

We've got a few questions of our own to get the ball rolling:


Where's Dino on taking action to slow global warming? Does he agree with his policy advisor, Lou Guzzo, that global warming is a giant hoax?

Where's Dino on supporting public transit? What will he do to ease congestion?

Where's Dino on funding children's health care? Does he believe it should be the state's goal to ensure all children have health insurance?

Where's Dino on supporting a woman's right to choose?

What are we missing? Submit your question today.

Thanks,

1. Yes, desk Jet here!
A question that Rossi may find it somewhat difficult to answer ,but it must be addressed.

Question) Rossi, Judge Bridges comming to the finnal days of your challange to the out come of the governors race in the court room asked several key questions to that wayword professor you got to validate that bogas equation which is ,in and of itself insidious ,or you are Rossi,but ah,--,the question is -, (if you ah,--, Rossi were to pick a direction to run as far away from that wayword professors course teachings, as the judge suggested would be a very wise choice, what ah,--, direction would you Rossi choose. Would it be north, south,east or west? Or do you have some sort of secret direction of your own?

Oh and ah,-- ,feel free to make up your own rules for running in this particular!
