Yep. Kevin Mannix is OK. The only major thing I disagree with him on is vouchers. I voted for Jack Roberts in the primary, only because I thought he stood a better chance in the general, without being a total liberal.
But, I'm happy to vote for Mannix. I hope he can win. I don't know.
As for this particular locale (Bly), haven't been there, but have been to Lakeview. I really doubt you'd find a lot of liberals around there.

I don't think many people thought he would win the primary either. Most people think he is too conservative to win in Oregon, the surprizing thing was he had a very strong showing in our most liberal counties, ie; Mult. Clack. and Wash.
The liberals are going to jump all over him because he is pro-life. Our message back will be "well he is a Catholic" so basically if you want to attack him on his pro-life stand you will have to attack the Chatholic church as well. That should put a damper on that arguement.
One of the main messages that needs to get out is that he is very pro business. Oregon needs a pro-business Governer ast our economy needs to be able to keep our existing business and attract other businesses to us.
We will win if we can just get the Republicans to get out and vote.
