Former WA Gov Gary Locke.
Gary is a great choice.....Gary is a great choice.......Gary is a great choice.....and did I say Gary is a great choice....wow I may know someone personally in the Obama Cabinet....It is also good for Obama's relationship with Washingtonians.
I worked on his campaign and have had dinner with him and wife Mona several times...
What a good choice.
