tomorrow is the election to fill our district 1 Congressional seat, recently vacated by Steve Largent. a month ago, i was pretty much resigned to having another GOPer, specifically, Cathy "My Husband, the Governor, Wants To Go To Washington" Keating. since she was rejected by Republican voters in favor a John Sullivan, a candidate who, when told that the National GOP was running negative and misleading ads on his behalf, said [not a direct quote] 'I didn't know anything about it and I can't do anything about it,' and who avoided open forums and debates with the Democratic candidate until last week. whenever i read the paper's letters to the editor in support of Sullivan, the only thing he seems to have in his favor is that "he's not a lawyer" [that's an oft-repeated direct quote]. the Democratic candidate is an attorney. i don't understand why anyone would refuse to vote for an attorney just because he or she is an attorney, but vote twice for a former pro-football player who had no other experience with politics.

anyway, if you live in Oklahoma's Congressional district 1, please vote tomorrow, unless you're voting for the GOP candidate, then please stay home.

oh yeah, speaking of Congressional districts, it looks like two of our Republican Congressmen will be facing off next election. Oklahoma is losing a Congressional seat. i'm hoping JC Watts Jr. is one of the ones in the face off. failing that, i hope that they'll redraw the district lines so that JC's district loses one or two of the military bases in it.
