When a federal judge ordered the breakup of Microsoft last week, U.S. Senator Slade Gorton predicted the action would be a factor in the presidential election in Washington State, home of the software giant. If Governor Bush is elected president, in my opinion, the case will be settled in an amicable fashion with a year 133; and Microsoft will be able to go back to its primary business, said Gorton, R-Wash. The people of Washington will have an opportunity to voice their own views of this prosecution in N stanley cup ovember by the way in which they vote. But Gorton s message di vaso stanley dn t play, says University of Washington stanley tazas political scientist David Olson. The Republican party has not made this an issue in this state, he says.

A number of powerful Republicans in Washington, chief among them Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, whose state is home of Microsoft rival Novell Inc., have backed Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson s ruling. Moreover, the judge himself is a conservative Republican, appointed during the Reagan administration. I think this issue is a non-starter, says Olson.He sees no backlash against Gore in November, despite the fact the company has evolved into a key player in the state economy, employing almost 20,000 people who make an average of $400,000 annually, including stock options.Stuart Elway, |
