Yeah -- I was talking about his dad. Junior is and always will be worthless. He should just become a republican.

If the highest ranking Congressman from Oklahoma is worthless, what does that say about the rest of our low ranking Republican delegation?

Was told by an OU insider that Boren is getting ready to leave and will announce Brad Henry as his replacement.

Back on topic, If I were Cason Carter, I wouldn't want to run again and have to face people after the little stunt he pulled last night, either. As a matter of fact I would be thinking twice about running for any public office.

When he was handing out flyers he came by the hacienda, I thought he was his teen kid or something!

Cason is a good case in point that you don't have to be a lawyer from a connected family to get . . . oh, nevermind . . .

I call him Mcfly or Willard because he reminds me of Crispin Glover.

Kathy Taylor should change her political  affiliation to independent and endorse this campaign. If she plays her cards right, she could be their Condi.

Having held the purse strings of the intelligence community for so long hasnt hurt him much; he still seems to have the FBI in his pocket... at least with regard to protecting the University's image.  How many other schools can a Muslim-extremist converts failed bombing attempt only make the sports page?

I've somewhat happy with Carter's addition to the council, but I still can't get over the Doogie Howser image and figure he's gotta be someone's rubber stamp on the council.
