I honestly don't care if you're more Oregonian than me or not. No one really cares.

You seem to, you are the one that keep bringing it up over and over.

Just keep this in mind the next time you try and tell me I am "Jersey through and through." I will put you in your place for that.

^ You two are random strangers on the Internet. This ongoing drama between you looks absolutely pathetic.

The country is actually turning more blue every day. The right wing is continuing to shift further to the right, which is alienating everyone except extremists.

In New York, any Republican campaigning in a Tea Party fashion is a complete joke. Even the "moderates (by country standards)" have lost all say. The Democrats are governing more as centrists at this point, which makes the masses happy but pisses off both fringes of the extreme.

I would imagine Oregon is no different. The West Coast is more liberal than most of New York.

No, you just can't think straight.

Obamacare for example, was a Republican health care reform proposal from the 1990s as an alternative to the Democrats' Single Payer. Twenty years later, Democrats give the Republicans their health care idea (including the individual mandate) and Republicans shifted right again calling it "socialism."

I don't know if it is blindness or stupidity.

Hawthorne and Belmont come to mind, but that depends on what the definition of 'neighborhood' is.

Thing is, if you scratch Portland's liberal veneer, its reactionary underbody is exposed.
