Oregon remains a great natural resources state in spite of the long tenure of Kitzhaber, and now Brown. 
It is time for someone, somewhere, to organize a grass-roots Green Party in this state. The environment is as pressing as any state issue, but there is NO organized political movement to oppose the well-funded, well-organized, and relentless corporate timber and other destructive industries. Brown isn't corrupt, per se, I don't think. She's just doing what Democrats have for a long time--- gotten into bed with big money.
