I guess that’s why they call it a blue state
One time only, Tom Coburn sings Elton John:
Sen. Tom Coburn and Florida Sen. Bill Nelson placed a wager on Thursday’s night’s BCS National Championship game between the Oklahoma Sooners and Florida Gators.
Since Florida won, Coburn agreed to sing [John's "Rocket Man"] during Nelson’s next constituent coffee, a traditional weekly meeting between a senator and residents of his home state.
Had Oklahoma won, Nelson would have had to sing “Oklahoma!” during Coburn’s next constituent meeting.
Dear God. At least it wasn’t “The Bitch Is Back.”

Will Coburn sing it Shatner-style?

I suppose it’s a question of whether he has any choice in the matter.
Coburn’s youngest daughter sings opera, but I don’t think she can help the old man much.

I saw this over at Lynn’s:
“I have no idea whether or not Coburn has any talent but it can’t be any worse than some of what we hear on American Idol.”
