PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The resignation of Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber instantly promoted the liberal Democrat who is next in line to succeed him: the 54-year-old secretary of state who has long been thought to have her eye on Oregon's top elected position.

Kate Brown, who is widely considered to be to the left of the departing Democratic governor, will also become the first openly bisexual governor in the nation. She will not assume office until Wednesday, when Kitzhaber's resignation takes effect. He is stepping down amid suspicions that his fiancee used their relationship to land contracts for her green-energy consulting business.

Her sexuality has never been a prominent issue in Oregon, where Portland recently had an openly gay mayor in Sam Adams and where the current speaker of the House, Tina Kotek, is a lesbian.

Is this where we're at in this country, seriously? We extol a politician's immorality and oh the news sheepishly reports,

Brown "cares about people. And there's nothing mean about her."

What, what, what?

Will the the NY Times report that America has elected a heterosexual president for the first time in decades someday? I can only just imagine... :roll: :roll: :roll:

Wave Bi-Bi to all your ducks Kate Brown!
