Both of our Senators and my Rep have come out for Clinton so this is a nice change. Thanks Christine.

1. How popular is she these days? I ask because she
barely scraped by to get in...wonder if she'll help. Personally, I hope not, but you never can tell.

2. I think she's grown on people

I was pleasantly surprised with the Obama endorsement frankly. She's been a big Clinton supporter in the past. Just as an aside some of her mannerisms and presentation remind me of Hillary. I know Rossi is already rumbling about running against her and starting the demonizing tactics. Here on the West side of the mountains the traffic, viaduct and ferry issues remain highly problematic and have still not been adequately addressed. Many folks on the East side of the mountains wouldn't vote for a Democrat even if she was Mother Theresa. Those idiots voted out the Speaker of the House Tom Foley for God's sake...talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

Aside from their political similarities, She even has many of the same mannerisms.

7. Very Funny!!! I just saw a Hillary commercial here in WA
Pointing out her endorsements by Cantwell and Murray. Very timely given Gregoire's endorsement.
