Now THAT I’ll sign up for.
Just what we need, changing a pro choice Dem for a pro choice Repub.
Pray America wakes up
She looks pretty hot. That helps. She’s no Barbara McKulsky.
It’s a dual race....Jason Conger, former state pol is running against her...quite the battle here....I still am not sure who I’m voting for....seems the abortion issue is what people are focusing on....
Great generic theme! Hope the end steals it and uses it
I've given up on the voting unless things change (a lot).

Just going to shelter in place for the time being.

Looks doggy to me on http://monicafororegon.com.
To each his own.
But I concede she’s probably quite intelligent.

You can bet she is pro-homosexual marriage. Don’t want to be considered an extremist.
How about a new bumper sticker: Keep your Doctor, get rid of your Liberal Democrat Senator/Congressman
If you would like more information about Oregon, please FReepmail me. I lost my Oregon list when my computer crashed recently.
But please, vote. Vote your conscience. Whether the way you voted wins or not, does not reflect on you at all. It’s the Portland and Eugene and Corvallis dimocrats. The rest of the state is red!
You aren’t suggesting voting for a pro-abortion Republican, are you? (I am in WA, as you know, and also have difficulty finding any acceptable and viable candidates at the state level).
No, I would never vote for a pro-abortion Republican.
What church is it at in Spokane?
I have not been to this small church — A few years ago we had Byzantine Masses here in Richland celebrated by a visiting Portland priest.
