LOL!!! Our biased Attorney General went in with Gore in the Florida deal after Bush won Oklahoma with over 60% of the vote and he also threw in against the Boy Scouts with CT. The AG is a piece of slime if you ask me and fits in with Carson!

Thanks for this post! I'm emailing it to my relatives who are vacationing in another state--should be back before the election though.

One question--someone on another thread somewhere mentioned that the so-called headlines they show in that awful commercial are actually from letters to the editor, not the editorial staff? Do you know if that is true? If so, I want to pass that on, too.

Gads, we're recording as much as we can, so we can zap through those commercials. The 'rats must have deep pockets for this one!

Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson is the son of former US Representative and two-time Senatorial candidate Ed Edmondson, and the nephew of former Governor and US Senator J. Howard Edmondson. His father's races against Dewey Bartlett in 1972 and Henry Bellmon in 1974 were (as I remember) both full of mudslinging on Edmondson's part. J. Howard was in his last weeks as Governor when US Senator Robert S. Kerr died in January of 1963. His political career was essentially ruined when he resigned as Governor and his successor, George Nigh, appointed him to the US Senate position. He was defeated in the democrat primary in 1964.

Another Edmondson family member, I believe it is Drew's niece but it could be his cousin, was involved with a robbery and murder in Louisiana within the past ten or fifteen years. I can't remember all of the details but it would be a good time to post them if someone can find them.
