Whether you supported Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, or made another choice, it has been interesting to watch the blame game going on since the election by the “leaders” of the losing party.
This opinion piece in the Washington Times distills the debate down very simply, pointing out that many liberal Democrats have no interest in learning from the election.
The writer captures the irony of the Democrats’ position by asking, “Clintonites are blaming everyone but themselves. They blame the FBI. They blame Russia. The blame the media. They blame sexism. Are they taking any responsibility whatsoever?
“Maybe they could blame themselves for nominating a candidate under investigation by the FBI?”
The rest of the piece is just as illuminating – and we’ll see whether it’s instructive going forward.
So, what’s the conversation within our local Republican Party about the re-election of Gov. Inslee? Is there any blame being directed anywhere except at the voters who reside in King County, and especially Seattle? That would seem to be a serious case of misdirection, given that those same King County voters have twice elected Bill Bryant to be a Commissioner at the Port of Seattle.

And yet, you seem to live here.
Look on the bright side…since a Democrat won, no recounts!
