Here’s the mention in the Murmurs section (found here):

»Switch and bait? Local conservative talk-radio host Victoria Taft is urging Oregon Republican voters to switch parties and vote for U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) in the state’s May 20 presidential primary. Taft’s website, victoriataft.com, urges Republicans to become a “Dummocrat for a Day” to keep the race going so long that it hurts the eventual Democratic nominee. “I just want this to keep going on and on,” Taft tells Murmurs. “This is a wonderful meltdown.” Scott Moore, spokesman for the Oregon Secretary of State’s office, says switching is perfectly legal: “We don’t at any time ask them for their reasons,” Moore says. “Nor can we peek into their hearts to know if they are genuine.”

I think it’s apropos that former Mercury bad boy, Scott Moore, is Bill Bradbury’s spokesman now (and has been for a few months).
