  True, but you did bothsides it without offering any examples to back up your opinion.

    The entire thing about Inslee has links and references backing up why I think he is a poor leader who has a Democrat branding. Well, one of the many reasons I think he's a poor governor.

        Not sure your point. I have no problem with Democrats. I'll likely vote for another one this presidential election. The parent comment asked for Democrat examples. I gave two - one good, one poor.

      If he hadn't pushed to shut down the state in early March, when Washington state was the worst outbreak by far in the nation we'd have been like other states that it has run away in. Instead we were saved. Washington could have had deaths like Michigan. Remember we were worse than everywhere else here. I thought Inslee took too long to shut down the state.

        I was prepared to leave Washington after the cases started piling on and the national guard started assembling a field hospital a couple miles away from me. Then somehow -- I'm still not sure if it was Stay Home Stay Safe or what -- the ERs stopped being flooded, the hospital was packed up without being needed, and most of the people outside started wearing homemade masks and distancing. I'm not home free but I can trust most of the people outside to wear masks and socially distance, and I know the ERs will be available if I get sick (I have a rare disease and my body is weak.) I'm not sure if it's Inslee's doing but I feel much safer here than home (Georgia.)

People are always harder on Democrats, as if a Republican putting on their pants in the morning is enough of an accomplishment.
