As has long been the norm in Seattle, whenever a local elected official has a big-vision issue to promote, the first constituency he must sell it to are the ornery, partisan drunks. But since the county council wasn't available last night, King County Executive
Ron Sims dropped by Drinking Liberally instead, and joined us for our weekly podcast.
It's not quite our usual freewheeling conversation -- we stuck mostly to local issues -- but neither is it your typical interview with an elected official... and I'm guessing Ron had a lot more fun (and a couple more drinks) then he usually has with KUOW's Steve Scher. Joining Ron last night was Molly, Gavin, Lynn, Will, and of course, Goldy.
