Mary Fallin compares OK teachers to....

How bad do you have to be, to be a conservative Republican and an OSU alum, to get vociferously booed after being introduced at an OSU football game?


with what she accomplished politically in her career

it would equal the crowd throwing tomatoes at thurman thomas
 
It’s the Dems fault that we elect idiot republicans. If Dems weren’t loony on the national stage, Oklahoma would actually elect some middle of the road Dems at the state level like we used to. Peloci, Warren, etc, have ruined the dem brand.

Maybe....but only for the most simpleminded of voters that already vote based solely upon party rather than issues and positions of the candidates.

can anyone name a candidate she ran against first term or second?

I understand what you are saying, but in many ways I think it is the opposite of simple minded voters. For example, Sanders appealed to a lot of young voters who think about immediate gratification and that it is not fair the others have more wealth. It is a relatively easy message to say that you will deliver free stuff.

As I have stated on this board several times, I am not a Trump fan. I will most definitely vote against Trump in the primaries (assuming he has capable opponents). But there is no way I would vote for the looney policies espoused by Sanders, Warren, or a Keith Ellison if they were Trump’s opponents in the general election.
Sanders may be, and probably is, a nicer and more respectable person, but his position on issues run counter to what I believe is fair and what is American.

Only a fool votes in their own material self interest.

It takes wise discernment to elect the outstanding state government of Oklahoma.

Only a political genius can see that a vote for Mary Fallin is a vote against "Peloci"
 
I do not believe that there are any middle of the road Democrats any longer. To be a Democrat means you are going to vote the way the leadership wants no matter what. Therein lies the problem.....

America's best socialist, commie, or WTF ever you want to call the POS; he ain't on our side.

I do not believe there are any middle of the road Republicans either.

Oklahoma ranks about 20th in what we pay our governors. ($147k if the numbers are still correct).

Interesting to note that Texas only pays state legislators $7k a year.

Jeri Askins....whom is an excellent human being and public servant. A moderate Democrat that would have made a damn fine Governor IMO. (Full disclosure...I know her personally and volunteered in her campaign).

Against Jeri, Mattress Mary started a “she might be a lesbian” whisper campaign.

She refused to go dirty...no matter how often I tried to get her to pull the trigger.

Again, Jeri was the better candidate, and would have been a better governor. National Dems have ruined the brand and make it very difficult to vote for any D.
