Stand strong, Maria

Washingtonians, specifically those from the state's liberal capital of Seattle, have been carping at the state's junior senator, Maria Cantwell, as she mounts a re-election campaign. Keep in mind that Sen. Cantwell barely edged Sen. Slade Gorton in 2000, and she faces Gorton's former chief of staff, Mike McGavick, who is also a well-funded former CEO of Safeco Insurance.

But for goodness' sake, the liberals in this state should be attacking everyone to the right and leave the one defender of the center and left alone!

Joel Connely of the Seattle P-I has an interesting commentary about this in his March 24 column.

Sen. Cantwell needs as much help as we can give her to remain in the Senate. She deserves to stay there. If nothing else, think about the Democrats regaining control of one or both chambers of Congress and the possibility of accountability in government that would return.

Logan, it's Bobby. Why don't you ever call me? I've tried so many times and I'm just not feeling the love in return. Call me.
