I always thought Oregon was such a beautiful state. Too bad the liberals have contaminated it with their overbearing presence.
Oregon is a very diverse state geographically due to two mountain ranges that divide the state along a north/south axis. The costal area is very scenic but temperate, wet and ..well, wet. The interior valley (Willamette Valley) runs from Portland to roughly Eugene and is home to the great majority of people. The valley has the best summers in the US with long days, high temperatures and moderate humidity (40%). Unfortunately there is 8 months of grey skies with many days of rain. The western half of the state is semi arid with only one sizeable town of more than 50,000 people.
Politics is dominate by the valley, and the left has a clear working majority there.
