UPDATE: Washington State's Mandate

There's just no satisfying some people. Take, for instance, Dino Rossi, Republican candidate for governor of Washington State. It seems that he is still trying to challenge Christine Gregoire's winning of the election. The State of Washington has now certified it's results and it appears that Gregoire is the governor-elect. Here is a picture of Mr. Rossi:


Basically, Mr. Rossi is now demanding a RE-VOTE! Can you believe this guy?

Edged out of the closest governor's race in state history, Republican Dino Rossi urged his opponent to accept a revote, saying the uncertainty surrounding the back-and-forth election was bad for the state. Democrat Christine Gregoire's camp immediately rejected the idea as "irresponsible."

Rossi's request came hours before the Secretary of State was scheduled Thursday to certify Gregoire as the winner by a scant 129 votes out of more than 2.8 million cast.

I mean, hey, I'm upset about who our next President is going to be, but you don't see Kerry calling for a re-vote because of how close the election was. Gregoire's spokesman made a comment though, that I thought was absolutely hilarious, yet also addressed Mr. Rossi's request:

"This ain't golf. No mulligans allowed here, folks," said Gregoire's spokesman, Morton Brilliant. "It's irresponsible to spend $4 million in taxpayer money on a new election just because you don't like losing this one."
