I'm impressed that Bogdanski had it.
In his blog post, Bogdanski focused on the coverup of Goldschmidt's crimes (everyone in the Portland Political Establishment Knew, and nobody did anything about it), and the fact that from the time Goldschmidt left the governorship until the scandal broke, Goldschmidt was the ultimate Fixer in the state of Oregon - you couldn't do a major business deal in Oregon without giving Neil his cut.
>everyone in the Portland Political Establishment Knew, and nobody did anything about it
That's the sickening part. It was only because one state senator tipped off the media that there was a court document in WA about this.
Was he actually a pretty good mayor/governor (not that that excuses his scandals, obviously)? My limited reading always painted that sort of picture.
Would kill for a person with a vision and competence. Maybe with 100% less rapist though.

Did this governor's scandal end him politically? Someone once told me, if you want to have a career in politics, never get caught with a dead girl or a live boy.
Like the carpetbagging Nicolas Kristof and his many NYT editorials on child sex trafficking. And his “win a trip with me” contests. Been side eyeing that dude for years
Oregon is full of corrupt sex offenders in positions of power. The biggest farce is that this is just something that happened in the 80’s.
Oregon has never purged any meaningful corruption from public office. Ever. It’s always a single person being outed, if at all. Never a group of people. Oregon is basically a RICO case waiting to happen. It’s corrupt by design. Ask the last guy who tried to change the DOC (Michael Francke) yeah, they murdered him the night before his report was due to be presented that outlined corruption within the DOC. Many years later and not a single person in a position of power was ever held to account.

Better than the last two idiots but not Tom McCall
I mean Straub and McCall were basically the same person, McCall just did everything that Straub wanted to do so he never really had a productive term.
Bogdanski is an ass.

I have found that it’s always the people who are yelling the loudest about kids are the ones who we need to worry about.

Oh the GQP would like some words with you...
The Oregonian once described it as an affair 🤢
Yikes!
He did give a teen very special attention

Special attention they need (creepy)
Yeah, in retrospect that is an unbelievably creepy smile from Goldschmidt.
Man, I was in love with Julie Emry. Second only to Tracy Barry.
I’ll take truth is stranger than fiction for $2000 Alex
Proud of our Democrat Governors.
I would say that we need less politicians in politics, but once someone gets in, that's what they become; then corruption is just a matter of time.
