LOL. Oregon's biggest paper barely mentions West Virginia.

1. Thats how it should be

in the grand scheme of things, WV means nothing.

[greguganus]

3. Yep. Story on page A-11 where it should be, right under the story of sewer rates going up a $1. nt

[hokies4ever]

13. LOL! Under a sewer gate story

2. My husband and I were laughing about that this morning ... It was on Page A11!

A small article waaaay in the back of the main news section... :rofl:

[GarbagemanLB]

6. That's the exact reaction I had when I opened it up. I literally laughed out loud.

[Justice Bork]

5. Honestly, it is only newsworthy to ...

hardcore political junkies and internet wastrels. Only reason to pay attention to it is local/state races.

7. Barack leads Clinton in Oregon by a mile, probably more. Why can't HRC win in NW?

10. Why can't she connect with hard working whites in the NorthWest?

[SemiCharmedQuark]

21. Because Oregon if full of uppity people who own coats!

[barack the house]

8. Oregon is set to go big for Obama so let's make those calls folks.

[grantcart]

9. Intrade - Obama shares go up after WV lol

[Cha]

11. Good..I stayed off my

computer yesterday so I know even less than that about West Virginia.

[theHandpuppet]

12. Hey, that's perfectly all right

Y'all are pretty much irrelevant to us, too. I suspect, however, that news of the Oregon primary results will garner a better spot in our local, small-town WV paper than page A-11, next to the news of the sewer rate increase. So does that make us better informed?

Next week I will let you know what coverage is given to the Oregon primary here and we can then compare notes.

:hi:

[GarbagemanLB]

14. Sure.

[femrap]

15. And you go along with that???

The Powers That Be must love you.

Reminds me of Old Soviet Union....but maybe you like that?

[GarbagemanLB]

20. I'm not a supporter of a candidate promoting a SOVIET-style election in Michigan's results as valid.

[femrap]

23. Rephrase your response so it is

understandable. Are you saying that voters of Michigan and Florida are NOT to be heard in this primary? Cuz that sounds pretty Soviet to me.

[GarbagemanLB]

24. The Michigan primary had one fucking name on the ballot. That's called a Soviet-style election.

MI and FL will be seated at the convention, but the current outcome of Michigan's primary will NOT stand. Obama will get delegates from that state.

[AtomicKitten]

16. Same with SF Chronicle.

barely a whisper :D

[satireV]

18. If you ignore it, maybe it will go away.

Bush does that a great deal.

22. Also notice at the top of the page. Proud to have Michelle's brother as a coach here at OSU!!
