How'd it go for the guy who wanted to be (GOP) rather than (Republican) on the ballot?

Anyone here know?

1. If you're talking about Dino Rossi, GOP,

who ran for governor in WA, he lost! Christine Gregoire was re-elected!

[Sanity Claws]

2. Dino Rossi lost

Rossi was listed as GOP when running for Governor of Washington State. He lost to incumbent Christine Gregoire.

[The empressof all]

3. He lost

I think you may be referring to Dino Rossi who was challenging Chris Gregoire here in WA state for Governor. If we're lucky he'll crawl back under that rock where he belongs and never show his ugly soul again. I never thought I'd find anyone who could rile up more contempt in me that Bush and Cheney...But Dino is truly a first class scumbag of the highest order.

4. Dino Lossy lived up to his name.

With any luck, we'll never hear from that smarmy lowlife again.

5. He lost and believe it or not his last ad may have done him in

The ad had an infant crawling around in a diaper and then handed around to various (I am assuming) family members. At the end of the commercial you see the baby crawling away with a big load in the diaper...

It was pretty tacky!! Anyone else see it?

[TomInTib]

6. If it were anyone but you, maddie, I wouldn't believe it.

That is just crazy.

[MadMaddie]

9. It's incredible - it does fall under "You just can't make this shit up"

I tried to find it on the youtube, if I find it I will post it.

I think that ad came out 3-5 days before the election and I yelled at the tv everytime it came on.

7. That ad was offensive on so many levels. Thankfully it appears the neg ads bit him in his behind.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

8. What the hell was the point of the baby taking a dump?! (don't live in WA)

What was the "message" of the ad?

[MadMaddie]

10. I think, mind you it is only a guess

The commercial was implying that our current Dem governer has created a pile of shit that needs to be cleaned up!

Anyone else have an interpretation of the commercial?

14. That's the way I took it also Maddie

In fact the first time I saw that ad, I thought to myself...that's not going to go over too well. In Washington it was a great election, except Burner lost...Reichart is another asshole I can't stand.

[mondo joe]

18. I think the message was that after a while you need to change things out. Dems have had

the Governorship for so long, the WA state repubs can really only go on change for the sake of change.

[spindrifter]

11. That ad stunk to high heaven!

It smelled as bad as the developers' contributions to the Rossi campaign.

[mondo joe]

17. I thought that was the least offensive ad of his. NT

[marmar]

12. Shit disguised as an acronym is still shit.....

n/t

[norepubsin08]

13. Dino Rossi? He got his ass kicked

the guy is a mother fucking piece of shit. He lost by 133 votes last time and whined about it the past four years. This time around, we tried to be sneaky and pass himself off as GOP, that tactic just highlighted his connection to Republicans and also how he wanted to run from them. He has an ethics case that he's involved in with the BIAW about political contributions to his campaign. With this second loss, I hope he crawls into a hole some where and is never seen again! The guy is one of those Tridentine hard core nazi type Catholics. Very bad on social issues and very poor for public education or helping the poor etc.

[MadMaddie]

15. He would have devastated WA!

[norepubsin08]

16. Absolutely

I was thinking, maybe in Dec or Jan we should have a Western Washington DU meet up..maybe a speaker and a potluck...I have a great site for it...what do you think?

[MadMaddie]

19. That would be awesome!

Count me in!
