Money doesn’t always tell the whole story, but when one candidate (Cole) has millions and the other (Bodnar) has almost literally nothing....
Cole is one of the poster boys for the GOPe, helping recruit numerous anti-conservative Republicans for House seats over the years while in charge of the NRCC.
And if some unwashed conservative accidentally wins a primary in a marginal district, Cole and his ilk see to it that the conservative is repeatedly backstabbed while they also quietly support the Democrat in the general election. Cole’s defeat in the upcoming primary in 3 weeks would be glorious, but it doesn’t appear to be very likely at all irrespective of any amount of wishful thinking.
I am in a different Oklahoma US district with a different RINO! It’s disgusting that a red state like Oklahoma is still saddled with these clowns, The power of incumbency is strong.
