What does everyone think of TW Shannon? Is he genuine, thereby essentially making him a libertarian in a republican ballot slot? Or is it bullsh*t?

Chad Alexander, a lobbyist and former chairman of the Oklahoma Republican Party, was arrested on drug complaints after a traffic stop in Oklahoma City in which police officers said they found cocaine and pills.

He was booked in the Oklahoma County jail after his arrest Tuesday evening and was released after posting $5,000 bail, sheriff’s officials said Thursday.

A police report indicates he was arrested on complaints of possession of 3.35 grams of cocaine and possession of a controlled substance without a prescription, nine pills that weren’t further described. His 2014 Mercedes-Benz was searched after he was pulled over at NW 36 and Western.

Calls to Alexander, 40, of Choctaw, for comment were not immediately returned.

He is a consultant for Coalition for Oklahoma’s Future, which raised large sums from corporations and individuals in 2012 to help Republican incumbents in the Oklahoma Legislature beat back tea party challengers.

Oklahomans for a Conservative Future has pumped nearly $650,000 into television and online ads and mailings to promote Republican Senate candidate T.W. Shannon ahead of June’s Republican special primary election.

The group was incorporated by two Oklahoma-based lobbyists, Chad Alexander and Stephanie Milligan, and construction company executive Xavier Neira.

Alexander, a former state GOP chairman, said it offers “an avenue for Oklahoma interests’ to get involved in the race. He said the organization is operating as a non-profit, rather than a political action committee that discloses funders, because it intends to remain active on conservative issues long after the election. (Online records show the organization initially registered as a for-profit corporation. Alexander said that was the result of a clerical error in the Oklahoma secretary of State’s office.)

Shannon, the state’s former House speaker, faces Rep. James Lankford, in the GOP primary to replace Sen. Tom Coburn, who is retiring from Congress. The winner of the June 24 primary is expected to prevail in the general election in November, given the state’s large Republican electorate.

You're going to have to explain to me what in the wide, wide world of sports this has to do with TW Shannon. That's about a GOPer who paid for ads to support Shannon, not about Shannon himself. I supported Inhofe when he beat that rat bastard McCurdy, but that doesn't mean that he knows me from Adam.

Ahem.

Shannon's biggest benefactors seem to be a mercenary, cokehead, chambercrat, establishment, politico that worked to defeat Tea Party candidates and a foreign born illegal alien amnesty advocate who has stated his biggest achievement as

"having the ability to work on the immigration bill in 2006 (called CIRA, Compressive Immigration Reform Act of 2006). Even though it didn’t pass I worked very closely with Sen. McCain’s team and the Republican national community."

(http://newsok.com/making-a-difference-xavier-neira/article/3346288/?page=2), followed closely by the private prison industrial complex. Sorry if that makes me skeptical of his "conservative" credentials, much less his "libertarian" credentials.

Politicians dance with those dat brung 'em. Shannon seems like a prostitute of the plutocracy. A caviar conservative chambermaid chambercrat of the Chamber of CommerceCorruption.http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB110143459359183988 http://newsok.com/state-court-to-clarify-gun-penalties/article/2875246

Sorry, but Shannon's script doesn't seem to line up with the company he keeps, make of it what you will.

So what? Does Shannon have any association with them? Anyone can run ads for a candidate they like; it doesn't mean that the candidate is at all associated with them.

So if the American Nazi Party decides to run an ad for Rand Paul because they happen to agree with him on an issue or two, that damages Paul's credentials? What a load of hogwash.

Note: I'm not saying anything about Shannon or his actual credentials, but tarring him because some jackwagon supports him is the lowest form of character assassination, IMHO.

If they are Facebook friends like Alexander and Shannon, then yes it does.
