I finally registered to vote in the next election. We don't have much choice as I see it. Mary Fallin, the Republican candidate has never lost an election. From listening by phone to her town hall meetings, it is obvious that she is no rocket scientist. However, she is blonde and attractive and I expect her to win. She has been involved in several wrong doings but the mud doesn't seem to stick to her.
On the other hand, Jari Atkins who opposes her in her bid for Govenor is not attractive. She claims to be a conservative democrat but it seems to me that she is too conservative. I will vote for her but would have preferred Drew Edmonson who opposed her in the primary.
The mudslinging and tv ads are just awful. We will have our first ever female Governor, but they are not any better than the men when it comes to slinging mud.
It baffels me as to why any one would want the health care
Provisions repealed. All of the old people that I know
are on medicare. They seem to be ignorant of the fact that
it is government health care. They are the first ones
to go get a motorized wheel chair whether they need it or
not. My pet peeve is that advertisement that says it won't
cost you a penny. It costs all of us when they get one.
We ate lunch with a woman who had her foot ran over by one
of them on the cruise. Sometimes they get out on the street
in those things. They were never meant to be transportation.
I don't begrudge them to those who know how to use them and
need them in their daily living. However, if that is not
the case, I wish that people would stop getting them just
to get more from medicare.
