Obama's Oregon Ingrates

Barack Obama collected a record number of looney liberals to hear him blab in Portland, Oregon:

"Portland, where he drew an estimated 75,000 people, the largest crowd of his campaign. On Tuesday, when Oregon’s mail-in ballots are tallied, Mr. Obama is expected to win, moving him closer to the Democratic presidential nomination. Mr. Obama is well ahead of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton in polls in the state, reflecting what political experts say is Oregon’s ready embrace of the non-establishment new.

Unaccustomed to being a kingmaker, Oregon also could be important to watch in November, when its shifting demographics, coupled with a fondness for being out front on unconventional issues including assisted suicide and reducing sprawl, meet two candidates who insist they are unconventional, brand-expanding politicians."

A record crowd in a city where people are allowed to freely shit on the American flag in public is really not much to be proud of.

The rest of us could have cared less.
