Hey, Nice Tie You're Sporting!

Via the Media Research Center:

After a recount certified on Tuesday, Washington's Republican gubernatorial candidate, Dino Rossi, was re-affirmed the winner by 42 votes, 1,372,484 to 1,372,442 for Democrat Christine Gregoire. When Rossi told CNN's Judy Woodruff that he considered himself the victor, she shot back: "Are you the winner? Or was this more of a tie?" Rossi educated her: "No, a tie is actually when you tie. When you're one vote ahead, you win. When you're one vote behind, you lose. And, so, it definitely is not a tie." Woodruff soon suggested he "try to make happy the other half of the state" by not governing as a Republican.
