Meanwhile, Back in My Home State

Washington Gov. Christine Grlegoire (D) is pulling ahead of Dino Rossi in the last two polls. Whew! I hope this holds.

And in other good news for Gregoire, she's leading in the most recent Washington Poll, 51-45. The poll was conducted over six days, 10/18-26, which makes it a little questionable, but it's the second public poll of the race to suggest Gregoire is pulling away. Hopefully Dino's little brush with the legal system on Wednesday will finish him off.
