Porn model walks, airplane modeler gets a do-over and remodelers may have overdone it. Here are the Winners & Losers for June 20, 2008.

Winners

Losers

Boeing

The airplane manufacturer, major employer and source of hometown pride rallies the congressional delegation and gets the federal Government Accountability Office to uphold the protest against giving Airbus a U.S. Air Force contract.

BIAW

The conservative Building Industries Association may not get their money’s worth now that gubernatorial candidate Dino Rossi has promised them no special favors and the Anti-Defamation League has denounced them for comparing environmentalists to Nazis.

Cody Michael Castagna

The waiter, part-time porn model and alleged extortionist is free after former state Representative Richard Curtis (R-La Center) refused to testify and all charges were dropped.

State Budget

The state revenue forecast is down and a future deficit is possible, but Washington is still in better shape than other states.

Vickie Ybarra

The only Democrat running for the open state House seat in the 14th District benefits from Republican infighting on the exceptionally crowded primary ballot.

Tim Eyman

The initiative bugaboo failed to stop traffic when he turned in a few signatures for his latest government hamstringing.

Dave Reichert

The 8th Congressional District incumbent is finally up in a poll after being ranked poorly in nearly every other possible ranking.

Fred Walser

The state senate candidate from Sultan was mocked in a Republican Party video for his guilty plea to misdemeanor charges of withholding evidence. Not his best week ever.
