BIAW to take the airwaves on Rossi's behalf

The Seattle P-I is reporting that the Building Industry Association of Washington (BIAW), an interest group that has endorsed Republican Dino Rossi in his re-match against Gov. Chris Gregoire, will be airing the gubernatorial campaign's first set of advertisements on the radio in the coming days. The report states that the BIAW has purchased $155,000 worth of advertising so far.

Kelly Steele, spokesman for the state Democrats, told the P-I, "This is no surprise. Republican Dino Rossi's political career has been built from the ground up by the BIAW -- the most powerful Olympia special interest lobbyists in Washington state. Rossi's goons have spent millions on attack ads that are lies and distortions, and we expect nothing less in 2008, as they pay Rossi back for carrying their water in Olympia by supporting their agenda 99% of the time over his career."
