And remember the woman who was an R who campaigned two years ago to make all pol. campaigns in King County non partisan. I was thinking on my walk this morning... what would happen if you made all political parties illegal? A couple of obvious things would be that 'normal' people would run, less likely to develop into career politicians. Less money floating around. People would campaign on actual issues without pre-packaged ideology for THE BASE. Just a thought experiment. But would probably be a good thing. That was the intent of making the races non partisan here in King County. However, the woman in question had an alterior motive......she is a very conservative R who wanted to win the race. However, her true colors bled through and she lost.....and I think that's the ultimate message about non partisan races. You can put a gunny sack over a horse and an octopus and say they are both the same thing but over time, it will become clearer that one is an octopus and the other a horse. So then, aren't you trying to deceive the public by calling it non partisan?
