An eight-city R.V. tour -- wonder if he's considered running those R.V.s (that R.V.?) on Biodiesel?

just curious...

Glenn,

It's a campaign, not a couple on holiday. I don't think your sarcasm if warranted. But biodiesel would not be a bad idea.

When will the fine Rep. Merkley come on out to the dry side of the state? Everyone of those towns is safe and happy to have him as a candidate, I want to see him in action behind enemy lines!!!

Normally, I like to utilize Blue Oregon to point out how terrific Novick would be as a Senator and how crazy it would be for the people of Oregon to elect either Merkley or Smith when they have the chance to elect Novick. But that's not my message this week. This week, I'm in the tank for Merkley.

Novick and you other Ducks, you cocky Schmucks, just you look out. Next Saturday, last year's Pac 10 joke will turn into this year's Pac 10 juggernaut. If last night's 37-0 pasting of San Jose St. is any indication, the Cardinal should be able to handle the Ducks next Saturday. That's right: Stanford football is back!

I understand Novick has offered to bet with with Merkley, a Stanford grad, on the game. Merkley should take Novick up on the bet, insisting on all the points that Vegas will give him. Then, I can join the Merkley campaign for one week. Once it's over -- once Stanford has shown everyone how improved they are under rookie coach Harbaugh -- I can go back to pointing out that while Stanford might be the best university in the West, Novick is surely the West's inspiring politician.

<h2>As a Dem who chooses to live on "the dry of the state" I've never thought of it as livng behind "enemy lines." I find people here to be quite friendly. I do, though, wish that every Democrat running for statewide office would spend a little more time here getting to know us. That rarely happens.</h2>
