Title

"Big Ten; Chair Kevin Mannix" radio episode

Description

An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin commenting on the use of multiple old, moderate Republican names to sponsor a Portland fundraiser event held by "hardline conservative" Oregon State Representative Kevin Mannix. Many prominent Oregon politicians were named, such as former State Treasurer Bill Rutherford, former Secretary of State Clay Myers, former Secretary of State Norma Paulus, and former Attorney General Dave Meyer. AuCoin points out how some of these politicians felt that their names had been "hijacked." Those who attended the fundraiser event included former Governor Mark Hatfield and former member of the United States Senate Bob Packwood. This is one episode from AuCoin's biweekly radio show on Jefferson Public Radio (JPR), which ran after he had retired from office. The majority of episodes feature his commentary on current political events, often focusing on issues important to southern Oregon where JPR is based. This episode aired between 2001-2003.
