Yes, we can.

But what do they know? We have a Brookings magnet that we bought simply because it is a dolphin with chest hair. Regardless I they'll be counterbalanced by that enclave of liberal living known as La Pine.

What's funny is everyone I know who lives in La Pine(all 2 of them) is most assuredly voting for McCain.

The only people I know from Brookings happen to be my wife and her parents....although it's been 25 years since they lived there(yes, they are all Republicans although her mom usually votes for whoever her union tells her to vote for, so she's Republican in name only pretty much).

Me, I live in the somewhat conservative enclave barely within the city limits of Portland sometimes known as Parkrose.....not too many Obama signs around here---not too many McCain signs either I must admit. Yes, Portland is by far the biggest city in the state and yes they are going for Obama something like 2 - 1....but combine that 1 with the rest of the state(Eugene aside) and the GOP can win here. One of our US Senators is a Republican so it isn't impossible.
