You know they're in trouble…

…when Republican politicians start invoking Democratic icons. Mike McGavick tells Josh Feit...

I do not comment on state initiatives because I’m focused on the federal issues. There’s plenty of issues to ask me about all day long. And by the way, the precedent for that was set by Scoop and Maggie.

Sorry, Mike, you're not Henry Jackson. You're not Warren Magnuson. You're not even close. You may have a point…

...I think it’s appropriate. As a senate leader working on federal issues to not wander into every state issue going on at the legislature…

But Mike, you're not a Senate leader. You're unemployed. You're not working on anything but your resume as you apply for a government job.

And if you really believe that the civil rights of Washington citizens aren't a relevant issue for a United States Senator, you're clearly not qualified.

It's Mike or Maria, folks. Which side are you on?
