What she's actually doing is losing Oregon a second time, this time with even fewer votes than she got in 2008. She lost support here over the last 8 years and that's always the mark of a candidate on the rise, dwindling support and repeated losses.

Of course Hillary did not even bother to show up in Oregon, not once since the 08 Primary when she and her family were here constantly. She is openly opposed to legislation the people here created and which works very well indeed. She loves Ronald Reagan, she pushes revisionist history of AIDS. That stuff appeals to a certain crowd but that crowd is in short supply here.
