Goldy was joined in political punditry by a diverse panel:
Seattle P-I columnist
Joel Connelly, initiative specialist Laura McClintock of
McClintock Consulting, the newest
Seattle Weekly online contributor (and former
Sound Politics front-pager)
Don Ward, and
Eat the State,
KEXP and occasional
HorsesAss contributor Geov Parrish.
The conversation begins with a
Netroots Nation debriefing. Goldy observes that Darcy Burner was welcomed to Austin as a veritable rock star. Do voters in the eighth notice? Should they? The topic turns to Tim Eyman, his so-called anti-congestion initiative, and the media’s failures to scrutinize his initiatives and claims.
The panel then takes a bite out of Attorney General Rob McKenna. Are his PSAs being used as a campaign tool in violation of the law? Are the words followed up by actions? The podcast closes with a round of speculations about vice presidential running mates.
The show is 52:01, and is
available here as an MP3.
