Just got done watching it.

I got the distinct impression that Askins doesn't like Fallin one bit. I had some windows open in front of the video for a few minutes while it was running, but I didn't see Askins look at Fallin a single time through the whole thing. And the way she just started whining about the negative ads right from the get-go and started the "I'm an OKLAHOMA Democrat" spiel didn't win any points with me. :nolike:
Fallin was cordial in thanking her for participating at the front and back ends. And I think that's the only two times she looked at Askins. Me thinks that they don't care for each other at all.

Askins did have some answers though, they both did. One time I thought Askins was doing a complete duck of the question, but she came in at the very end of her answer and addressed the question directly.

Both did well and stated their positions well I thought. But Askins didn't change my vote either.

Apparently they were both at Justice Opala's funeral and if looks could kill ... well there would have been a couple more services right there. :yikes2: It bothers me that neither one of them had the balls to be respectful to a man of his position and put their pettiness behind them for 2 seconds. :slap: But then again one would expect no less from a "decent" politician, I guess ...

At least they both showed up on time ... not something our esteemed Gov. Henry thought was necessary ...

Have I mentioned that I don't have much use for people, especially politicians, lately?? :finger:

Please tell me that they didn't hold the service over out of respect for our good golly-jee Governor? I wouldn't have. If he wanted to pay his respect he would've been there on time.

That is pretty much how I feel about it. I swear that man will be late for his own funeral.

True story ... Right after Gov. Henry took office there was a meeting scheduled for the Board and Equalization powers that be. One of those meetings where public notice has to be given ... Gov. Henry decided he didn't want to be bothered with getting up and getting ready ... Apparently 10 AM is too rich for his blood ... Gov. Henry called my attorneys at the time (Tax Commission) and said Hey, no biggie, we can just reschedule, right? My attorneys were like WTF?? No ... not really ... there is this little thing called fiduciary duty and oh, you know, that little thing we have to comply with called the Open Meeting Act ... you know ...

Judging from what I have seen and heard over the last 8 years his attitude hasn't changed a bit ... He could care less about the people of Oklahoma ... it is all about HIM ... :nono2:
