As is well known, I ran the campaing against M5 in the outstate areas, where it was defeated. M5 "solved" a Portland local problem with a Statewide hammer. Portlanders, if they believed there was a problem, ought simply to have voted against the operational levies, and that would have handled it quite nicely. Instead, they elected to turn their local government options over to Someone Else from Somewhere Else. Not a good idea - then or now.
