I think if Rossi was smart...he would concede and use all these issues to grab a Senate seat in the next election.....he is going to be portrayed as a sore loser and he may as well kiss his career goodbye....

I agree 100%. When Republican Ellen Sauerbrey ran for Governor of MD, a mostly Democratic state and challenged the election result, she was toast. Washington seems to be a mostly Democrat state, like Maryland willing to elect an occasional Republican Governor.

Before November, the state's voters will learn much more about her. In 1994, Mrs. Sauerbrey made a strong bid to become Maryland's Margaret Thatcher, losing by fewer than six thousand votes at the end of a mudslinging race with Parris Glendening (D.), who dramatically outspent her and is now running for re-election. There was some evidence that vote fraud made the difference; Mrs. Sauerbrey spent several months in court quixotically challenging the election results and even attended a Republican Governors Association meeting -- an unfortunate pair of decisions that made her look like a sore loser. Her nickname among political enemies is 'Sourberry.'
