The Stranger, Seattle's leftist pro-sex, pro-transit, pro-gay marriage, pro-porn alternative weekly edited by Dan Savage (yes, that Dan Savage) has its endorsements out.

I loved this bit on the Lieutenant Governor race...
In the primary election, we endorsed "anybody but Brad Owen," noting the incumbent lieutenant governor's ridiculous crusade against high-school potheads and his membership in a crappy-ass rock band. We described one of his challengers, Republican Marcia McCraw, as an "empty bag of chips."

In response, McCraw sent us several dozen bags of chips.

We had no choice. We convened an emergency SECB meeting, passed the talking stick around, dug into the chips, and reflected on our previous endorsement. We noted that McCraw is the kind of Republican who not only wants to legalize pot, but sends bags of chips to potheads. She's also pro-choice, and she served on the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Council. In other words, she's very nearly a Democrat—which is more than you can say for Brad Owen.

Full article is here. Warning: If you are tired of politics or voting for McCain, you may not want to follow that link.
