I hate to say it, but Texas was the smarter state in all this.

Yes, I realize this news is about a week old.

BTW, the frontier states took it on the chin pretty bad. Arizona was named a finalist, but (heh, heh) I don't think they are going to win.

Looks eerily like a Super Tuesday primary:


The finalists chosen were: Arizona, California, Colorado, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and South Carolina.

There was no way Oklahoma was gonna win that. Obumble's approval rating is down to only 30% here.
