Reply #13: Patty's campaign is gearing up now [View All]

but they're facing big corporate money in Nethercutt, so now's the time to send that $5 or $10 or $25 you were thinking about. Get those yard signs up, send Patty what you can. We canNOT afford to lose that seat. http://www.pattymurray.com.

Patty spoke at Saturday's King County convention, and she was simply wonderful. She's become a very good senator.

My hope is that Nethercutt gets arrogant and tries to continue with personal attacks against Patty. It just won't wash; she's basically still a very nice lady, and a lot of people will be made extremely uncomfortable by personal attacks on her. Nethercutt's essentially a non-entity except for the corporate money behind him, but Patty is very popular in the Puget Sound region and with women statewide. The Nethercutt people will have to tread a fine line in attacking Patty's policies without alienating female voters.
