That's because we live in a state with 29 representatives.  I'm sure if we lived in a state with lesser population and 10 representatives we'd know them by heart.

*Crowley and Engel are more both liberal and would probably fit better in that category, but I put them in the mod liberal category to seperate them from the others who are more liberal

Marion Berry is a straight-up populist.
Vic Snyder is center-left (a la Joe Biden or someone like that).
John Boozman is a hard-right individual.
And Mike Ross is also a populist, although slightly less so than Berry.

[Mr. Paleoconservative]

OR-1: David Wu (D) = Liberal Big Business Democrat
OR-2: Greg Walden (R) = Moderate Republican
OR-3: Earl Blumenauer (D) = Radical Liberal
OR-4: Peter DeFazio (D) = Liberal Regressive Democrat in Populist Clothing
OR-5: Darlene Hooley (D) = Moderate/Liberal Leaning Democrat

Greg Walden may not be an extremist, but how can you really call him a moderate?

Study his voting record on all the issues.  He is no conservative, and he is no liberal.  He's a moderate.
