The High Priest hath annointed his Disciple, yea and verily, and hath found him wanting not. AlGore has endorsed Billy Bradbury for the Oregon governorship. Having built so much, and having worked so hard to stoke hysteria among governments and inDUHviduals alike, the annointment by the High Priest [...]
In what may become known as a key turning point for the Bill Bradbury's gubernatorial campaign, Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize winner Al Gore announced his endorsement of Bradbury at this morning's sold out fundraiser at the Left Bank. While it was no secret Gore was supportive of Bradbury's' [...]
AlGore's in town to stump for his acolyte, Billy Bradbury (and of course, to push his latest vision of the impending Apocalypse). In the other corner, Greenies have apparently vandalized the venue (Keller Auditorium); spray-painting slogans all around. This being Portland, you have to wonder where the Greenies got [...]
The O's David Sarasohn pinned down Congressman Peter DeFazio on whether he's still considering a run for Governor in 2010. The answer? You bet.
Last spring, DeFazio talked about making a decision on the governor's race by Labor Day, and now Kitzhaber and Bradbury have been running for months. When will [...]While Charlie Burr at BlueOregon accused me of stooping "to take the luster off" the Al Gore endorsement of Bradbury by reporting here on the genuine history of bad blood between Gore and Kitzhaber, over at Willamette Week, reporter Hank Stern admits that, journalistically, I simply beat him to a [...]

Politics can be tough on your body. The days are long, with many hours often spent on your feet, talking to the public. Which makes running for Governor all that much more difficult if you've got multiple sclerosis.
Over the last year, many people have wondered aloud - here on BlueOregon,' [...]
In a half-finished office space near the Rose Quarter, Oregon Gubernatorial candidate Bill Bradbury's campaign has begun to set up shop. A few weeks ago, campaign manager Jeremy Wright took me for a short tour showing off the freshly dry-walled call-room. Wright gave a quick narration on the green bonafides [...]
The sold out Jackson County Democrats fundraiser caught a lucky break. After hearing the news late yesterday afternoon at the DPO Summit that our keynote speaker AG John Kroger was ill and couldn't make the much anticipated event this evening at the Jacksonville Inn we had a problem. Kitzhaber and Bradbury were attending' [...]
It's a beautiful Sunday morning in Sunriver, Oregon. Oregon Democrats have spent the weekend gathered to hear from legislative leaders, our members of Congress, and from activists and wonks of all sorts.
