Dr. Coburn is awesome. In 2004, he had all funding cut off in DC during the primary by the powers at be but Toomey and Club for Growth came in and the OK grassroots went to work. Have never made that many calls for one candidate in my life. He won the 3-way primary without a runoff.
Then in the general the RAT Carson sounded like a conservative when he wasn’t. OK grassroots never gave up on Dr. Tom and we kept on pushing. One Senator stands out and stood up for Dr. Tom which was George Allen. Never forget that he wouldn’t go along. Denny Hastert said about three weeks before the election that Dr. Tom was going to lose. Never thought so because we could have given away a lot more Coburn/Bush shirts at the OU Homecoming and when I wore it to my seat kept getting go Coburn comments.
He won going away and has been standing up for Oklahomans and Americans ever since to cut earmarks and pork and now on healthcare. Best candidate I have ever worked for in my life.
