Askins/Fallin

Why are people fighting over this? They both suck *** and picking one is like asking if you'd rather get kicked in the left or right nut (or ovaries for the bitchy females on the board who feel left out). They're both just blowing the Bible crowd to get their support because honestly, that's the majority of voters here, sadly.

Personally, I was for Randy Brogdon. I got to talk to him and I really liked the guy.

Oh well, I guess I'll have to make up my mind soon and choose between a cheap slut or a bull dyke.

 

I promise I'm a good little Republican, but nothing about Fallin impresses me, from her stance on issues to what she said at the debate.

 

I promise I'm a good little democrat, but:

ditto with Askins.

 

Not impressed with Askins, eh? Well, shoot. Looks like we're all going to go with either the candidate who disappoints us least or the lesser of two evils candidate.

We should start a pole

 

Can't be any worse than the FL Gubernatorial race.

 

Did anyone else hear Jim Traber talk about how much he loves Askins today? I was shocked to hear it--he's a huge republican fanboy, and he was gushing about her.

 

even someone as dumb as traber realizes what a retard failin is...

 

They are both horrible choices.

 

Brogdon didn't win; therefore, whoever does win is irrelevant to me.

 

A few new articles making the media rounds today on the candidates:

Fallin and marriage

Askins and money

Cliff's Notes version: Fallin is emphasizing her family in her campaign, despite the fact that she is previously divorced, as is her current husband (twice), and they will celebrate their one-year anniversary together... almost a month after election day. Askins has now taken the lead in fundraising between the two candidates, but at the same time, just loaned her campaign another $350k and has loaned a total of over $1 million of her personal fortune to her gubernatorial campaign.

So, if you must cling to an issue to vote against a candidate, there you have it - either Fallin is too out of touch family-wise, or Askins is too out of touch money-wise.

 

Please explain to me how being divorced means you are anti-family? I have a close relative who is the best father I've ever seen and he's been divorced many times.

Marriage isn't easy.

 

But Mary is, apparently.

*RIMSHOT!*

I don't get no respect.

 

I didn't say that and it sounds like you aren't saying that either. Is anyone saying that?

 

I said it.

*waggles his cane*

AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN.

Word.

 

Mary Fallin is a turd. Seeing Badger and Homey fall in line with Askins should be a decent indicator of what a schmuck she is.

 

I just glanced at a nearby TV - Brad Henry and the wife who makes him look better (seriously - he never campaigned without her, hehe) are now campaigning for Askins.

 

Sounds to me like you're saying she has no leg to stand on regarding emphasizing her family since both she and her current husband have both been divorced.

 

Well that and her regard for our state troopers.

 

Yep. I thought it was a pretty good commercial.

Also ABC had Askins on this morning and Fallin respectfully declined their offer to discuss the Family topic.

Askins response about whether you need to be a Mother to relate to the People of Oklahoma..."We've never had a Woman Governor in Oklahoma and somehow they were able to do the job without having to have been a Mother."

It was pretty funny...

 

It should have sounded like I was providing a brief overview (aka "cliff's notes version") of an article I had absolutely no hand in writing.

I really don't care that she's been divorced, much like I don't care how much Askins donated to her own campaign.
