is largely Boeing/Microsoft country -- especially the western, Democratic part of the state. And we do a lot of business through our ports.
That's why our Senators both voted for NAFTA, which many progressives despise. Our state gained more jobs than it lost with NAFTA. I can't imagine Kucinich succeeding in the eastern or southern Seattle suburbs -- too many red and purple voters. I could imagine him in Jim McDermott's district (or one just like it). But we're lucky enough to have Jim McDermott. Why would we want to replace him with Kucinich?
