How Did TNF Members Vote On Bridenstine Vs. Olson

[Conan71]

Curious to see how our cross-section of members stacks up with D-1 as a whole, since it's said a Democrat cannot win a national office from the Tulsa area.

He cannot win. I have a feeling we will look back at John Sullivan with fondness and melancholy.

[Townsend]

You never can be sure. 

People may vote for Olsen because they don't want to vote for a monster built from the parts of cadavers.

Oh, and they can spell Olsen.

You know, after reading his responses to the LWV, I thought Allen was reasonable enough that I would be reasonably OK with him winning. He buys some of the weird far right talking points, but all in all seemed like he had a brain capable of functioning, unlike Bridenstine who seems to just parrot whatever crap his backers feed in.

That said, Olson is by far the better candidate. Slightly left leaning relative to Oklahoma, but clearly willing and able to have disagreements with his party.

I'll vote for Olson....when we get to the poll.  We're waiting for Number One Daughter to get home from work.

[Teatownclown]

I voted for JO. Gives me the right to complain about Bridenstein for 2 years. Maybe he'll toe tap.

Markwayne...the rest the country recognizes us by our "leaders."

Except that it is Olson, at least according to his web site and the ballot I marked.  And if our sampling is any indication, Olson trampled Bridenstine.

Bridenstine was too much like Sullivan, a vacuous talking point machine for the Tea Party.  Half the things Bridenstine was spouting in his ads was pure fantasy.

His "debates" with Sullivan were sure as heck entertaining though.

Well dammit to your first point.  Maybe I like Bridenstine's monster.

I hope our sampling is consistent with actual voting.

I assume that's why he refused to debate the other candidates and wouldn't respond to interview requests.

[GG]

I crossed party lines and voted for Olson.   

I just don't care for extremist from either party.

Yes they did debate..................... http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?subjectid=335&articleid=20121022_335_0_SyriaA9907

They debated in Bartlesville too........................http://examiner-enterprise.com/sections/news/local-news/bridenstine-olson-debate-issues.html

I'm a republican but can say that I REALLY don't like Bridenstine. He ran the airshow clusterfrack and was quoted saying he had no idea what he was doing. He did that while running TASM and admitting he wasn't qualified for the job. He sold four houses and an alpaca farm to buy into the rocket racing league which had it's only performance 2 years ago in Tulsa. So... it seems to be his own worst enemy when it comes to icking jobs or business ventures.

Ready Craig Allen's facebook makes me think he's Shadows.

Not real impressed with Olson either... if only he had shot a water bottle with a shotgun while holding a bible, he might've had a shot.

Well, this is a good indication where this forum stands.  Not very representative of how Tulsa thinks.  Me included.

Bridenstine wins in a landslide.

His acceptance call to war on the federal government was a bucket of crazy.
