We all know that there was a huge influx of people that volunteered on every level of the Obama campaign. Thousands of people just in the Portland Metro area, individuals that had never been involved in politics before, provided sweat equity to ensure the Democrats prevailed in the fall. The effort now though is to find a way to keep these dedicated people engaged and involved as we move into the less energizing time between campaigns.
Democrats are starting to understand that aggressive advocacy is the best policy. Progressives have always had a soft spot for consensus building that too often has led to an appearance of weakness. We are told by our conservative pundits that we must move forward in a bi-partisan spirit, read acquiesce to the GOP perspective. In our effort to be more sensitive to the opposition we make compromises that often undermine essential strategies. Nothing stands as a better example for this than the 2000 Democratic Presidential ticket.
Very interesting results from Gallup about public opinion across the country. If all potential voters were registered to vote, and if all actually voted along party lines, there would only be 5 states in the country where Republicans hold a clear plurality. Democrats hold a plurality in 35 states. The map looks great for Democrats, but holds a number of lessons as well.
People often have asked me why Oregon voters will seemingly adopt contradictory positions, and why some elections in Oregon are so close. The fact is that for quite some time Oregon has been very evenly divided between conservative and liberal philosophies. Oregon has a large number of voters who are either strongly conservative or strongly liberal, and a smaller number who fall in the middle.
