New Portland Business Alliance Poll Claims You Hate Sam Adams, Bicycles, Equal Rights

I hate raw tomatoes and laugh tracks too, how did they miss those?

I fully intend on voting for whichever candidate is the most handsome.

One of Portland's few bright areas has been the growth of its bike economy. Are bike businesses not part of the Portland Business Alliance?

I'd rather have the first one and I'm feeling like I'm slowly and permanently gravitating toward Eileen, but I'd also like a really good recipe for seitan fajitas.

I'm going to vote for the ginger.

Well, I guess I did really hate all those equal rights I was taking advantage of...

I want to rock that poll in the face with a lead pipe while shouting "Death to false dichotomies!" That would feel good.

Funny how the O doesn't actually supply the poll in question. Or do the journalistic integrity thing and note that they're due paying members of the PBA.

Does it really surprise you that 49% have an unfavorable impression of Sam Adams? I find that utterly believable.

The "equal rights" probably has to do with the ill-defined, mission-impossible "Office of Equity". I do wonder how they phrased the questions, though.

@Blabby - Well, I think it'd be unusual for any mayor to still have super high ratings by the end of their term. Doesn't it always seem like a cycle of high (false) hopes, followed by slow realization of messy reality? Maybe I'm projecting.
