3. The West Coast is still relatively sane.
Now, let's hope Patty Murray can pull it off! :woohoo:

8. She will

They might get it when the next firestorm hits us and there are NOT enough fire units.

Dud would have been dangerous. You might as well have picked some guy off the street. He was a pitiful choice. He wasn't even qualified to run for Lake Oswego city council, for pete sakes.

14. Yay!!!!!!
That was way, way, way too close. How the right-wing can foist any dumb hack
upon the ill-informed population is terrible. It is an insult to the
intelligence and I think they know that.

Poor Kitzhaber, though, he's gonna have his hands full.

23. Me too. But I really expected Kitzhaber to win it outright last night.
At least Oregon did their job and kept the Red Menace at bay :toast:

26. Dudley's a nice guy...
But has no experience in politics, and showed no interest until this race. Lived in Washington, didn't vote. An empty suit (size 108 Loooonnnnng) with some name recognition after his time with the Trailblazers. He would have been dancing to the tune called by Bob Tiernan and Kevin Mannix. This would have been the worst possibility for governor in these times, and kitz is one of the best. Yay for us.
