There are two campaign events on the calendar tonighta massive candidate forum that threatens to test the boundaries of my patience. (Every candidate in town is invited, I believe, and it’s running from 6:30 to 10 pm…the format, however, is unclear. I love this stuff, but seriously?), and a party for city council candidate Jim Middaugh. Details are below.
The Candidate Forum to end all Candidate Forums:
Tonight, 6:30 to 10 pm, Ambridge Event Center, 300 NE MultnomahPresented by the National Association of Real Estate Brokers and the Oregon Business Network. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet all the candidates at once, talk to them, think about how they’d work together, and learn enough to vote.
Jim Middaugh’s party:
Come out tonight to Sip D’Vine, at 7829 SW Capitol Highway (map) in Multnomah Village from 7 p.m to 9 p.m. to enjoy some great jazz by Ross Seligman and some wine and conversation about how to make Portland even greater.
Crown King Adams!
It looks like Prince Adams is already looking for court jesters to help him try and run his Kingdom. If he's looking for any better lackey than John Branam, I doubt he will find one. Branam has already made a mockery of the VOE system with his lack of judgment for paying his campaign manager $25,000.

-------------------------------------------
Honest people of Portland, be on the lookout for the Adams/Branam cabal. These two are regularly seen together. Any one outraged by the behavior of the Branam campaign should consider a vote for Branam the same as a vote for Adams. Branam will be a rubber stamp for King Adams and all his shenanigans.
BRANAM IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF GUY YOUD EXPECT ADAMS TO SURROUND HIMSELF WITH!
Sho Dozono and the residents of Portland, you've been warned...

FROM THE WW:
Without making any endorsements or calling, Adams hinted he might put Council candidate John Branam "who strikes me as somebody very capable"or Amanda Fritz in charge of the cops. (Branam and Fritz are running for Adams' seat.)

Sam Adams, John Branam and Tina Kotek were sitting together in the nose-bleed section during the speech. When Obama hit his stride talking about education -- saying kids need art, music and P.E. -- Adams gave Branam a big thumbs up. It was super cheesy.
Burris,
Why don't you just stay home and tend to your crematoria ovens, you nazi bastard.
Lighten up, Hipster.
After all, Belsen was a gas.
the format, however, is unclear
No kidding. I'm speaking at this thing, I've gotten 20 different e-mails from these people, and I still don't know what the hell is going on.
The only thing I can say is, there'd better be alcohol.
