    Maybe not, but most of the moderates could. I know liberals that are fed up with the homeless on the streets too.

    I think they are more likely to vote for Betsy.

    But do you know liberals stupid enough to think that electing Drazan as governor is going to make it better?

    Or either of the other two, for that matter?

    Unfortunately, I think I do. And her ads have hit those talking points, irregardless of if she makes a difference or not.

    There was no insults and it wasn’t veiled. My opinion stands. The take is lazy. There were absolutely no semantics issues here either. The post literally said “We Can’t “ four times.
    That was addressing the post. As is this one as well.

    I was in Sweet Home for a wedding yesterday...the first time I've been there or Brownsville and the other small towns heading up the mountains. Lots of Betsy Johnson billboards and that's in the middle of farmland galore..didn't see a Suburu anywhere or a Prius...that's some Big Truck country. Reminded me of Prineville a bit. Was pretty up there ...some thick healthy looking trees.

    Is this a reaction to a poll, or some bit of news, or?

    Just curious.

    It is just a poll but i'm not surprised. People are not happy with Kate Brown and consider Tina a similar platform. Drazan is running on those pain points and the homeless right now instead of the same ol' PERS is bad. I'm gonna destroy that campaign they have run on the last 10 years.

    I just hope we get someone who loves communism is soft on crime, encourages homelessness and understsnds the virtues of not working and leeching off the state.

    We also should shut down our farms because they cause the climate to change. Also we need to force inject everyone with the death shots every 3 months to lower out xarbon footprint.
