Ronald Reagan once said, There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit.

Dino Rossi once said: There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn’t mind where he gets the credit.”

Can we look forward to him saying that ketchup is a vegetable?

[Duffman]

Ah yes...but Dino never pitched for 'Twenty Mule Team Borax'.
Therefore any comparisons would have to be moot.

[Duffman]

...and remember sparky, ketchup is not a vegetable until I say it is.

nor did Reagan say that...but hey, historical accuracy was never your strong suit.
read the post on 'Reagan Post Traumatic Derangement Syndrome.'
but hey, in the same vein we can say that the Clinton administration proposed counting salsa as a vegetable. LMAO

[Coiler]

We know the Reagan policy was never initiated after the coverage it received. What the ketchup industry was saying was that Reagan was a vegetable.

[B.O. Stinks]

Tomato is fruit.

Dino symbolizes the frustration that Americans have today with government. He will be victorious. He's the "outsider" that we freedom-seeking citizens cherish. Patty Murray is an old style predictable politician who is married to lobbyists, lacks independent thinking and believes government is the answer to all our woes. Good bye Patty.

[Duffman]

The picture you've provided for this topic is appropriate. I'm afraid it depicts the 'Dino Rossi' that voters often see. I've advised Mr Rossi not to run against Patty Murray as I think he will be soundly defeated. A thrice-time loser, he will IMO have ruined all chances of a future in politics.
Mr Rossi is a decent person with a sharper than normal ability to deal with people and form a concensus on complicated issues. Unfortunately that does not carry thru to the public because of his weakness in his ability to 'speak' and 'debate'.
EEvery speech or debate I've seen him in, he looked weak and without passion. He did not take my advice and he has put himself out on a limb. Sen Murray will saw that limb off...not because she's so dynamic a Senator, but simply because she does have a track record and I believe to some extent she has gained the support of the military veterans. So long Dino. [for what it's worth, You'll still get my vote!]

A tomato is a fruit that is often confused as a vegetable, but becomes a condiment through a magical and highly secret process of squeezing and mashing.

[Ray]

Experts say so...kinda: http://www.askoxford.com/asktheexperts/faq/aboutother/tomato

[gdog]

So where's all this "bloodletting" at Kiro? You were wrong about that so you're changing topics?

[Ray]

If the bloodletting does happen then is it corporalogic or mormologic? Put the wrong format on the 50,000 watt powerhouse, put the best format on a lousy FM signal then fire all the people who have nothing to do with the bad decision.

I was told that when you fire people you are actually firing your mistakes. Too bad upper management doesn't think to fire itself.

[Fremont]

Jeez Duh-f! I can't imagine why Rossi would ignore your sagacious advice! You've proposed a theorem with the conclusion that he should not run. For all those reasons, he should run. We would never have to see him again!

[MRV]

The Republican Party is shoving this loser down our throats, again. Rossi is an establishment guy who is almost as dirty as Murray. He got into this after good men spent time and money to be nominated by the people, not by Washington DC Party dons. He will not have the support of his own state grassroots. We must eliminate him in the primary in August. Clint Didier is the man who can win against the homely big-spender in tennis shoes.

[Bill]

I like ketchup.

I reckon I prefer mayonaise on them french-fried 'taters though. Mmmm, mmmmm.

Alright 'den.

[Duffman]

I've not heard Didier speak yet; does he have better oratory skills than the average typical NFL tight end? We are certainly getting an idea of how valuable speech and telegenics are within the political arena.

[Obama is a black man]

Frankly I think a warm body would be an improvement over Murray. Didier, Rossi or Asker.....ABM (Anybody But Murray).

[Dave (not dave ross)]

obama is a black man, i dont think rossi is going to beat murray, altho i voted for him for governor over gregoire, i find her totally incompetent. interesting that rob mckenna all but announced his run for the governors office during ron and don's fill in show.

[KS]

We'll all see when Didier, Akers and Rossi debate on the same stage. There should probably be more than one debate - more like two or three. It is clear that these guys need to be vetted throroughly before facing the incumbent.

It is realistic to say that whoever it is better believe that it will be an uphill climb to win. The main struggle will be to pull the independents over to their corner.

They'll have to articulate the "It's now or never" and clearly explain why they claim this - something that has meat and something that will pass muster for being perceived as more than just scare tactics.

[Ryder]

Said it before, will say it again.

If the economy continues to tank, Murray is gone.

If the economy remains as it is, or gets better, Rossi, or any other Elephant, will crash and burn.

[tigsnort]

The economy is getting better, actually.

The scar on Dino's cheek tops it off, putting the finishing touch on his vaguely creepy, off-putting demeanor.

[B.O. Stinks]

There is a lot of depth to tigsnorts comment "the scar on Dino's cheek....".
We do not pass on people in this state just because of looks. Have you ever set eyes on a more homely woman than Patty Murray? Christine Gregoire is butt ugly. Remember Dixie? Mike Lowrey? Hell, we don't even require intelligence (again, see Patty Murray).
We are just not as shallow as you suggest.

[joanie]

I think it's the heavy eyelids and looking down. People who can't face you are inherent liars. Smarmy.

[joanie]

Funny, B.O. Took you ten sentences to say what Tig said in three. Now that's deep.

You forgot the neener neener at the end.

[Jo]

Has anyone sent this to Dori? I am sure with his high morales plagiarism by Rossi bring a rant against unethical politicians and cause him to drop his support of Rossi (sarcasm off)
