Going to try and blog the occasional easy piece while on vacation. Have a couple of big stories I will handle when I get back, but until then, probably just a handful of entries.

Since I will forget by the time I get back, I want to post the list of endorsements from the Oregon League of Conservation Voters. I should note that this is not a vetted list so I am not personally endorsing them (other than Jeff Merkley, who is excellent) but I consider the Oregon League of Conservation Voters pretty good so it is worth putting their endorsement list out there. Anyone who agrees or disagrees is free to post their comments here.
