Losers |
BoeingThe airplane manufacturer, major employer and source of hometown pride rallies the congressional delegation and gets the federal Government Accountability Office to uphold the protest against giving Airbus a U.S. Air Force contract. |
BIAWThe conservative Building Industries Association may not get their money’s worth now that gubernatorial candidate Dino Rossi has promised them no special favors and the Anti-Defamation League has denounced them for comparing environmentalists to Nazis. |
Cody Michael CastagnaThe waiter, part-time porn model and alleged extortionist is free after former state Representative Richard Curtis (R-La Center) refused to testify and all charges were dropped. |
State BudgetThe state revenue forecast is down and a future deficit is possible, but Washington is still in better shape than other states. |
Vickie YbarraThe only Democrat running for the open state House seat in the 14th District benefits from Republican infighting on the exceptionally crowded primary ballot. |
Tim EymanThe initiative bugaboo failed to stop traffic when he turned in a few signatures for his latest government hamstringing. |
Dave ReichertThe 8th Congressional District incumbent is finally up in a poll after being ranked poorly in nearly every other possible ranking. |
Fred WalserThe state senate candidate from Sultan was mocked in a Republican Party video for his guilty plea to misdemeanor charges of withholding evidence. Not his best week ever. |
