Quite simply, it makes sense politically. In that district a hard line conservative has no chance of winning unless the Democrat is just off the rails. The make-up of the district just doesn't allow it. The real surprise in my mind was the district to the north east of Dr. Jim's. Sweeden is a Democrat and is known to be on the left of Oklahoma's politics (which is still center to center-right in most places). But I really thought he had future political hopes, and voting no on this- particularly in a district like his, means trouble in future elections.</blockquote>
