And Merklery paid over $4000 to redo the leader’s chambers when he had criticized the one who redecorated before him.

Hmmmm. Pot, meet kettle, black.

Good Riddance Gordon Smith. You sided w/the Rats on the War and Drilling so go get your votes from them.

He only sided with them when the poll numbers started going south for him....which IMO as a military guy is worse. He is an unprincipled leader...the kind we need to get rid of now.

It may get darker before the dawn, but the new day will be better when we introduce conservatives with core values. We'll introduce these people once liberals can no longer take rotting in their own values and realize they need to call in the cavalry.

Thanks, I’m one of them, and God help me. Been here six years and I really don’t know if it’s something in the air from all these old-growth forests, or all the inbreeding (Oregon is sort of like Appalachia, except the people aren’t nice), but this state must have the lowest per capita IQ scores in the country.

Put anything on the ballot that will raise taxes and it passes. Every local government meeting I’ve attended is rife with incompetence, nepotism and sheer leftist foolishness ala Berkeley. The political corruption at the State level is rivaled only by Chicago. Kulongoski is an outright liar. The Social Services are run almost entirely by lesbians, come to think of it so is the Catholic archdiocese. Almost every car you see has an Obama sticker, including the Catholic churches.

I’m waiting for this economic disaster to drop housing prices enough in California that I can move back. By comparison to Oregon, California is fairly normal, and that is saying a heck of a lot!

“and then over to Scappose.”

I had a fraternity brother at the U of O. He told me that when he and his brothers were little, and they did something to upset the parents, his father would say:

‘If you keep that up, I'm taking you to Scappose!’

Scared the crap out of ‘em.

“But, it’s the true conservatives who are still living there that are supporting the Constitution Party candidate for U.S. Senate.”

Then we can thank these “true conservatives” when there is one less republican vote to confirm decent supreme court nominees.
Gordon Smith supported both of our new justices.

That’s kind of what I meant when I brought up what I did with my statement. Leftest voters are not voting at all for the Constitution Party candidate for the U.S. Senate, so this means that, at least going by the 7% that the Constitution Party candidate is getting in this poll, some conservative voters are planning on voting, instead, for the Constitution Party candidate for the U.S. Senate instead of voting, in enough of a conservative majority, for the “RINO” Republican incumbent Senator Gordon Smith. This is a serious ongoing problem that’s very common with “RINO” Republicans at every level throughout the U.S. when it comes to who the majority of conservative voters will end up finally voting for, if anybody, when the serious choices are only between a “RINO” Republican and a Democrat.

I live in Washington state close to the Oregon border with several relatives living in Oregon. I see many ads for both Smith and Merkley on Portland TV. If, I lived in Oregon, I would probably vote for Brownlow to send a message to the state GOP that if your Senate nominee goes too far to the left, he is gonna lose.
