Mr. Edmund is a campaign staffer for Oklahoma gubernatorial candidate Ernest Istook, a Republican.

This wasn't a prank.

I don't know about that, so far Istook's campaign has been a prank, worst campaign ever. We have all been wondering why a bunch of (strange) California boys were running a campaign in Oklahoma. So far they've managed to insult us by portraying the citizens of OK as hicks. It's almost like a deliberate thing....but that couldn't be, could it?
