In what political pundits are calling a startling move, the Oklahoma Republican Party has apparently decided to endorse Democrat Andrew Rice in his bid to unseat U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe in the 2008 election.
The state GOP recently launched a Web site that shows Rice's commitment to social justice, fair wages and better health care for Americans. The site even runs a flattering photograph of Rice. The message here is that Rice is energetic, charismatic and ready to send Republican Inhofe, the global warming denier, into retirement.
One political observer said: "State Senator Rice looks pretty cool in his shades. I'll vote for him on that alone."
