(white) Dude killed a 18 year old girl in cold blood after luring her our to a remote place. As usual SRDines are unable to understand how the average real person may have some hold ups with his release.

...why. What's with dems and freeing murderers?

I'm honestly not sure about this. I've known quite a few Oregon lefties in my time and a lot of them really have been on the koolaid for decades and they have some inner conflict between being woke and being moral. So they're comforted by freeing a murderer because it's woke but it also reminds them on a very superficial level of To Kill a Mockingbird and what they were taught when they were kids.
And in my personal experience with people in the political machine here when they go mask off, they are semi-aware that they're participating in corruption and enriching themselves through it, but feel it's okay because they don't steal too much and they're doing so many good deeds that the Republicans wouldn't do. So they're always looking for some kind of moral victory to make them feel like they're the good guys. And that leads them into weird paths like this where they do stuff that's politically self-destructive and probably not even virtue signalling, just dealing with their own inner demons.
The other thing to seriously consider though is the network of far-left donors who paid for all the DAs who are just straight-up saying "we like crime". The nicest word you could call them is "accelerationist". They've probably got their people in position in the governor's staff and are gaslighting her that everyone wants mayo murderers pardoned and this will be extremely popular.

Some people are able to display their intelligence by going on at length on a subject and never actually saying anything. This ability is most common in trades such as politics, public relations, and law. You have impressed me by being able to best them all, while still coming off as an absolute idiot.

dems are fundamentally incapable of seizing political advantage.
pandemic is winding down fast and putin proved the dems right about the threat of russia, so they are obligated to go full r-slur, alienate the center and let the republicans win the mid terms

they want people to not vote for them because if they won too many elections people could demand pro-working class policies.
