In Washington State Senator Patty Murray has mojados stumping for her. The story has broken in the local papers.

She is in a neck-and-neck race, and this could lose it for her. There are over 600 comments on the story and over 90% of them are critical of illegal immigrants and of Murray.

Most stories draw 100 comments tops.

When Brian Bilbray's opponent, Francine Busby, said to Hispanic supporters in 2006 that "You don't need papers for voting" to help her campaign, she lost the election.

Her defense was that she wasn't encouraging them to vote illegally—just do what these people in Washington State are doing. Bilbray pointed out at the time that that was bad enough.

It still is, as Murray may discover.
