Vickie Walker is resigning
According to a press release from the Governor's office Sen. Vickie Walker will be resigning her seat to accept a position on the Oregon Parole Board.
Her legislative career started when she was elected to the House of Representatives in 1998 and then to the Senate in 2002, where she served on the Joint Ways & Means Committee and its Public Safety Subcommittee and as the legislative member of the Governor’s Re-Entry Council, which is charged with improving the transition of offenders from incarceration back to the community. Senator Walker will resign her senate seat on July 12 to accept the Governor’s appointment.

QUITTER!!!
SHE CAN NEVER RUN FOR ANY OTHER OFFICE AGAIN EVER!!!
i didnt know that failin palin resigned to accept another civil servant position. Please explain.
and i didnt know that walker was still in the process of completing her first term...
i didn't know walker ever rose to the rank of governor.
Whole lotta crap you don't know.
IDIOT!!!
Why don't you quit with the "...i didn't know..." crap, so that we can call you a QUITTER as well.
lol
I thought this post was about Sen. Walker. I must have missed something. Anyway, I will miss Sen. Walker's tenacity in the Senate. I may not have agreed with her often, but she was more than willing to call a spade a spade and tug on Superman's cape. In the go-along to get-along world of politics, she stood out from the crowd.
Walker ran for office and was elected. She should serve out her full term instead of accepting a spoils position at 5 times the salary, handed to her by her friend in Mahonia Hall. The consituents of her district deserve that much respect. She must have known she would lose her next re-election bid. And she must be cheating on her husband. And I bet there is an FBI investigation about to break. Why else would this failure of a politician break the trust of her constituents and leave the office she led them to believe she would serve?
Whole lotta crap you don't know.
And if someone said "they knew" any of the crap listed after the "I didn't knows", they'd be wrong.
That's the point. Walker resigning /=/ Palin resigning. That's the implication that idiot 104 was making.
She should serve out her full term instead of accepting a spoils position
Yeah Obama!
The consituents of her district deserve that much respect.
Yeah Obama!
It's NEVER right to resign...No matter what!
/stupidity
Anon 832 should explain the similarities between Walker and Palin, since he failed to grasp the previous comments.
(It's okay, buddy. Some of us [you] are just slow.)
For a Democrat I actually liked Walker as well.
But Kulongoski and the other Dems probably found her as a thorn in their side and it was better to promote her and make room for a more reliable bot...er....vote.
