    Coming To An Election Near You: Faux Politiciens

    Too bad Bryan Baird (Another Baird) was too young to run for the WA 3rd Congressional seat.  His candidacy would have shown how mindlessly people vote.  Because so many would have thought they were voting for the original Baird.  And, more importantly,  it shows how misguided is the interplay of the top two primary system with the two party system.  The “Bryan Baird” dilutes [...]



    Parking Lots Are Dangerous Places

    WA State Tax Reform Needed

    I-1098 is a sensible reform getting rid of the poorly thought out B&O tax for small businesses, providing a reduction in property taxes and adding an income tax on the top 3% of income earners in the state.  My only concern is that once an income tax is passed, the income threshold will eventually be lowered thereby adding to the middle class tax burden.

    Pridemore Nabs WA State Labor Council Endorsement

    State Sen. Craig Pridemore (D-49, Vancouver), candidate for the open Congressional seat in the 3rd District, won the Washington State Labor Council’s (WSLC) sole 2010 endorsement over his opponent (presumed Democratic frontrunner) Denny Heck this afternoon.

    Senator Pridemore on Health Care

    While I disagree with Senator Pridemore that a bad bill with a couple of good provisions is better than no bill at all, Craig deserves praise for staking out a very clear position on health care reform.  The Democrats have to pass legislation that will provide health care at a reasonable cost to both businesses and individuals.  It [...]



    Deb Wallace Withdraws From 3rd Congressional Race

    Top Two Primary System is Flawed

    Citing a desire to not “thin the field of Democrats” in the primary, Deb Wallace withdrew from the 3rd district race to replace Rep. Brian Baird.  This is yet another example of why the “top two” primary system is undermining the electoral process.  If we did not have political parties, the top two primary would make sense.  [...]
