Yesterday, Faith Ireland and Robert Utter, two former state Supremes, officially filed suit against the BIAW and said they intend to sue Dino Rossi. They claim Rossi was too hands-on in 2007 with what's supposed to be an independent BIAW PAC. If he, as a candidate, coordinated with the PAC in any way, the PAC would be limited to spending $2,800 on a race they've spent $2 million on in 2008. Rossi says: "If what they were saying were true, which it isn't, there would be no problem with it being true..." Yikes. It's a tough campaign season for the BIAW, which is also being sued by Republican AG Rob McKenna for inappropriate touching of worker's comp funds, among other things.
