Liberals hate WM and Oregon is very liberal so you may be right. Conservatives like the free market, liberals like socialism.

I won't dispute your point that ?win-Co? has lower prices. I've never heard of them, so they very well might.

George Wills point was that for most Americans WM is a financial savior of sorts, and that Liberals are absolute fools to take the positions they have.

Why would a politician chose to needlessly insult the very voters they are courting? See my tagline

I seldom shop WM myself, but when I have I've never encountered the environment you've outlined. I'd guess most shoppers haven't or WM would be out of business.

The fact that enough people in Oregon oppose WM is no surprise. Oregon is known for its liberal viewpoints, and "F---k You" attitude towards the poor. It their state. WM should not build there. Just like Chicago.

Beg to differ. The noisy ones in Oregon hate WM. I shop there often. I was very disappointed Wal Mart backed down from the Beaverton location (just blocks from where I work). For the basic food items I tend to need pick up while out shopping (milk, juice, butter, eggs) WM has darn good prices.

And I tell ya, they can't be beat for their prices on fabric - identical fabric they sell down the block at JoAnns for twice as much. So, some Oregonians hate them, but some really like them, too. IMHO
