[edit] poorly conceived

I believe the tone of this page should be entirely different. I don't think the article should be centered around the notion of whether Oregon is more "Blue" or "Red," or more "conservative" or "liberal," or whatever - that would just be an invitation to endless pointless debates. Rather, it should be an overview of the issues that dominate Oregon political discourse: land use, education funding, "independent spirit," environmental stewardship, death with dignity, OCA, … And maybe also include a FEW notable political figures whose influence has transcended their office (maybe Morse, McCall, Goldschmidt. Certainly no more than one per decade.) Thoughts? -Pete 06:20, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
