Hillary Clinton's campaign in Oregon - Starts with a BANG!

This monday morning I received a pleasant surprise. A call from Hillary's campaign in LA inviting me to attend the opening of her headquarters in downtown Portland. FINALLY! I was bummed to miss her rally last Saturday 4 miles from my house. 4000 attended and there was renewed energy. The Oregonian wrote a front page article on Hillary arriving in Oregon. Arrive she did with her campaign team. Thank you Susan my blogger pal / commentor/Hillary die hard on Blue Oregon for your email and finally meeting me with a hug on Monday.

So at 6 pm the doors opened on NW 5th and Couch in the Pearl District. There must be a few hundred people young and old. I wish I had brought my girls with me. It was great to see a whole team of young staffers all shipped from accross the country. Finally we all feel united for a cause, for Hillary Clinton. The office is open 9 am to 9 pm. Volunteers needed for making calls. I wish I could but I am off to India for 3 weeks, but when I return, I will be available. In the meantime I will blog. I have been quiet, but now its time get back on the Hillary track. She has come to Oregon in full force. I was amazed at the speed with which this campaign machine works.

Lets kick some ass!

Jeff Merkley for US Senate

Jeff Merkley is running for the democratic nomination for the US Senate. I support him and endorse. I met Jeff last last year and was impressed with his vision and experience. He is a uniter and he has my endorsement amongst many other important endorsements he has received so far.
