Senator Gordeon Smith, Oregon crossed over to the dark side when about two years ago he came out against the Iraq war. When we were just starting to win with the surge. He was all over the press with interviews and his speech coming out against the war. I guess he thought that the liberals in Oregon would like him and the liberals in the Senate would not target his seat.

He was number two on the Dems list to take out. He lost by 9,000 votes to a liberal democrat and 20,000 votes went to the Constitution party in the Senate race. Every conservative that I knew in Oregon said no to Smith and now we have a liberal Democrat.

“Every conservative that I knew in Oregon said no to Smith and now we have a liberal Democrat. “

How’s that near-filibuster-proof majority working out for those conservatives now?
