More hope! Art Robinson wins!
Art Robinson has firmly won the Republican primary to run against DeFazio in Oregon!
"Republican voters of Oregon District 4 have chosen Dr. Art Robinson to represent them in the November 2010 Congressional race against Democrat Peter DeFazio. With 70% of votes counted as of 8:54 pm, Art currently has 80% of the total."
It sounds like Robinson will be emphasizing education in his campaign, which makes sense: his family-run business publishes books and curricula for home-schoolers.
Equally important, Robinson is a pioneer and hero of real science, one of the earliest and steadiest opponents of the Carbon Cult.
= = = = =
Later: I'm genuinely puzzled by the complete lack of media attention to this win. Robinson is an interesting guy, a real outsider to politics, and somewhat aligned with Ron Paul. He soundly trounced a more ordinary Republican who was supported by the Tea Party. Those factors should make him worthy of notice, or so you'd think.
Only one national news website mentions him briefly. Among blogs, WUWT has a good write-up this morning. ¶ 2:46 PM
