Way to go, Homegirl!

As a constituent and supporter since her first election to the Shoreline School Board, I take just a bit of hometown pride in Senator Murray's leap into the leadership big leagues...
WASHINGTON -- Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., won the fourth-highest leadership post Tuesday as Senate Democrats organized their new majority following last week's elections.

Murray, who is in her third term, was named secretary of the Democratic caucus, replacing Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., who is stepping down to lead the Senate Democratic Steering Committee.

The secretary's job ranks behind Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., caucus vice chairman.
Heady company, but we know you'll make us proud, Patty.
