Founders Quote:
"No compact among men ... can be pronounced everlasting and inviolable, and if I may so express myself, that no Wall of words, that no mound of parchment can be so formed as to stand against the sweeping torrent of boundless ambition on the one side, aided by the sapping current of corrupted morals on the other." --George Washington, draft of first Inaugural Address, 1789

The Lesson from the passage of MZ 66 & 67
Posted January 29th, 2010 by JeffWhile digesting the results of the election in which Oregon voters believed the deceptively simple messaging of the union led “Yes” campaign (not to mention the ineffective “No” messages), I realized that Oregon’s economy is going to have to get much worse before the voters wake up.
Deschutes County’s election results make that point clearly.
Here’s why: Deschutes County’s economy is really hurting with an official unemployment rate of 14% and Bend’s economy (the big dog in the county) may not have hit bottom yet as the Oregonian article today http://www.oregonlive.com/news/index.ssf/2010/01/bend_wondering_when_it_will_hi.html describes. Voters there defeated the tax increase measures by 17% and 19%, which means a lot of Democrats voted against them, as R’s only have an 8% voter registration advantage (2,700) in the county. Democrats have been steadily gaining ground and has been voting more liberally as more Californians have moved into the area.
