    Moderator: So Ms. Smiley tell us why you want Washington women to suffer through back alley abortions and why you want to put black people back in chains.

    Smart to ensure first and only debate occurs after ballots have been sent out:


    Would you be surprised if none of the major local networks carry the debate?

    Now the Populists are self-organizing outside of the institutions, coordinating their activity, and this is what the Democratic party fears the most.

    The Democratic party fears populism, the people engaging in democracy outside of the institutions controlled by the Democratic party.

    In China every institution has to have a branch of the Communist party as ideologicaal enforcer. In USA every institution must have a branch of the Democratic party, such as an LGBT club, as ideological enforcer.

    I picture this being like when Lois Griffin was running for Mayor of Quahog and every answer was 9/11.

    Patty will be January 6, then womens rights.

    And that’ll be all she has to say.

    I firmly believe State of Wash elections are rigged. But I will say this... The soccer mom in tennis shoes was running ads two months ago attacking her MAGA opponent and showing herself surrounded by construction workers telling them she's fighting for them. She wouldn't have been going to that effort and expense if there wasn't at least some legit concern.

    It is the first time I do ever remember seeing a Patty Murray commercial.

    Of course the debate is well after ballots have gone out and thousands of people will have already voted. In person voting starts 10/21.

    It should be fairly easy for people to vote, but at the end it should be Election Day, not election month.

    Recent polling. Pretty damn close. Tiffany is running a damn good campaign.

    If the Dems "mail it in" (ILWIDT), and don't send in their ballots, it could be interesting. Tiffany is getting picked up for a lot of media coverage on the conservative news channels. She was on Fox News Steve Hilton show last night. She is not incredibly polished but is not Loren Culp. She would have given Heir Inslee a better race than Culp.

    I don’t know one single co-worker that would stand around in a circle and have anything in common with that hack
