The Republicans may have the wolf-hunting vote locked down, but the Obama campaign is burnishing its own frontier credentials with a new video from the fish throwers at the famous Pike Place Market in Seattle.
Will this Pacific Northwestern YouTube outreach move anyone? Well, count this blogger in.

I of course put it at http://silencedmajority.blogs.com/silenced_majo… – as you can see in my post, I registered 14 voters in one day – all workers at the Market.

Pike place is nice but honestly it is a little over played I think. Plus it is a tourist trap! I'm a little bias liveing in West Seattle, but I would much rather just go to Seattle Fish to get my food when I can't harvest it straight from Puget. The Market is just way to crowded for me and I don't like all the tourists. It is a fun place though!
