OR-Sen: Novick Raises 100Gs, Has Great Taste in Music

It’s certainly a long way from being a formidable amount, but I thought this note from Steve Novick, the only announced Democratic challenger against Oregon Republican Sen. Gordon Smith, was pretty cool:

Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Steve Novick announced today that he has raised over $100,000 for his campaign, all from individuals. “Over 300 good, generous, progressive individuals, who are committed to electing a Senator who will fight runaway economic inequality, work hard for universal health care, fight global warming, and work to get the Federal budget back into shape,” Novick added.

Although recognizing that the ultimate cost of a Senate campaign will be in the millions, Novick said that the early success demonstrates that “in the words of the Talking Heads, this ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no foolin’ around.” (Emphasis added)

  1. Talking Heads aren’t the half of it. In his announcement speech he quoted from the immortal Warren Zevon’s “Lawyers, Guns and Money.”
