My reality check:

-The majority of the funds for light rail would come from the Feds rather than Oregon or Washington. (60% of the green line came from the Feds according to this article http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...ostcount=1251)

- The influx of new people into Clark Co (especially Vancouver) and the changing perceptions of mass transit have made light rail a much more popular idea than it was 10 years ago.

-It behooves both Oregon and Washington to to expand light rail, and the us vs them fingerpointing does nothing to further the cause.
