      <![CDATA[Mikey: Merkley is a real leader. As Oregon's House Speaker, he led the greenest, most labor friendly and most progressive session we've seen in 30 years. With a one vote majority in the House, he pushed through domestic partnerships, payday lending regulation, updated the landmark bottle bill to include plastic bottles, ensured 25% of Oregon's electricity comes from renewables by 2025, DOUBLED financial ad for college students...I could go on and on. <br>
<br>
As for your claim that Merkley hasn't followed through with his commitments, what about all his work over the years on domestic partnerships and environmental legislation? He never gave up the fight and passed domestic partnerships last year AND helped make Oregon's 2007 session the greenest in the country.

      <![CDATA[It's so hard to shill for Merkley. But if Colin Meloy can get over his earlier endorsement of Novick, then I guess I can too.

      <![CDATA[Appreciate Funk and Meloy getting involved, and I hate Smith as much as the next guy, but Merkley is not deserving of this kind of support. He's shown himself to be a Dem version of Smith- no backbone, no spine, "finger in the air" politician who can't make promises or commitments- his only campaign strategy is tot ake down Smith. That's like shooting fish in a barrel.<br>
<br>
How about supporting a *real* leader? <br>
<br>
Oh yeah- this is Oregon, and we don't have any right now. Not a single one.
