The old Oregon Regional was held in Portland's Memorial Coliseum, and while it's a fantastic venue for a large regional/DCMP, I don't think it would have the capacity for a Championship. The Portland Thunder (Arena Football team) play in the Moda Center next door (along with the Portland Trail Blazers), and while it's a bigger venue than the Coliseum, I'm still not convinced that it's ideal for a Championship.
That's about it for large indoor stadiums in Portland, so unless they wanted to do it in the Portland Convention Center (not terrible as far as convention centers go), I don't think it'll happen in Portland. I know Seattle used to run two regionals in the same arena, but I'm not familiar with the details, so it would be awesome if someone from Seattle wanted to chime in on Washington options.
