24 October 2005The early lineWe're starting to accumulate candidates all of a sudden, and so far, this is what I'm thinking: Governor: If it comes down to Henry vs. Istook, as I suspect it will, it's an easy preference for Henry. Lt. Governor: I like Nancy Riley, but I'm leaning slightly toward Jari Askins right now. I think I've seen enough of Todd Hiett. House District 5: Unless the Democrats manage to find someone with something resembling throw-weight the Fifth has long drawn sacrificial lambs I'm inclined to go with Mary Fallin. Then again, the true joy of this race comes from not seeing Istook on the ballot. Caution: with a whole year still to go, almost anything can happen. Posted at 7:51 PM to SoonerlandI agree with your pick for governor. And also concur with your opinion of Hiett, though still have a lot to learn about the others. As far as the Fifth District is concerned, I consider an opinion now to be extremely premature conjectulation. Posted by: MikeH at 12:17 PM on 25 October 2005 |
