FeedsReplying to a comment on Jeff Merkley: A Progressive's Progressive
I'm glad you brought that up, torridjoe. It's a perfect example of what I was referring to.
That entire train of events was set into motion by Novick himself. I'm tempted to call it a classic case of Preemptive Karma. Acting in his capacity as an unlicensed backseat driver, Steve stridently parroted a GOP smear against Jeff Merkley on a vote Jeff made several years ago on the apparent presumption that Oregon progressives wouldn't see through it. And what you're not admitting to is that the two legislators (AKA actual frontseat drivers who even voted the way that Novick claims was the only right way to vote) bluntly set the record straight.
For the life of me I don't see how or why you expected Oregon progressives to be receptive to a regurgitated GOP smear. I'm all the more bewildered at your implied notion that Oregonians would elect gutless sheep to represent us in the state legislature.
