The Democratic Party of Oklahoma has called for Senator Jim Inhofe to return "tainted" money he received from Sen. Ted Stevens, who was indicted today corruption charges. The Oklahoma politician is running for re-election this year, and got $10,000 from Stevens political PAC for his campaign.
The campaign of Andrew Rice, Inhofe's Democratic chanllenger, posted in a blog, "Today, the differences between Andrew Rice and his opponent, Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe, became even clearer."
State Sen. Andrew Rice's U.S. Senate campaign against the kooky Jim Inhofe continues to draw national attention.
Rice was featured in this excellent and thorough kos blog today on Daily Kos. Yesterday, his campaign was featured on the Congressional Quarterly site.
Also, a campaign fundraising account for Rice on ActBlue is steadily growing in donors and money.
Another day, another local, right-wing media outlet argues Democrats should be like Republicans so some Republicans can be to the right of the quasi-fascist, mission-accomplished president they so adore.
So here we are, still 14 months away from the 2008 elections, and already the editorial writers at The Daily Oklahoman feel compelled to criticize State Sen. Andrew Rice’s campaign against U.S. Senate Jim Inhofe.
Heck, Rice has not even officially announced he is running yet. The bullies and chicken hawks at The Daily Oklahoman, the propaganda ministry for the state GOP, must be scared.
