It appears as if Sam is trying to manipulate as much support as he can to battle the recall effort. The recall issue continues to be his lying, fraud, and corruption while seeking election. His lying and lack of integrity has continued following election. He still seems more interested in his own welfare rather than the interest of Portland residents.

Yes, because a small group of extreme right wing nut cases meeting at Nick's Famous Coney Island is scaring the shit out of him.

How much backbone does it actually take for a politician to speak up suggesting ideas that the public wants? Next up, Sam will be extolling the virtues of playing with children, petting bunnies, and going to the Wonder Ballroom on July 7 to see the Jim Rose Circus.

Peds, bikes, and lightrail on the bottom seems a better solution to me... protection from the elements is a big bonus.
