seems to me when she was lt gov. she did a lot more then askins has done, and i want a gov, that will do something other then keep the status the same....................
It has been my experience that those that vote based on a single issue usually wonder later why there is a bullet hole in their foot.
Perhaps they feel good that they beat out a politician who disagreed with the them or voted in a way that was opposite of that particular voter's beliefs, but when things really go south in other matters, they have difficulty admitting that they are a good part of the reason for things going south.
Look at the current climate with Barack Obama. A lot of those who voted for him because of "Hope and Change", or because of his race, or whatever reason they had are now backing away from him in droves. And, it isn't just the "independents" that are backing away.
The closest party to the Communist Party in philosphy is the Democratic Party, enough so that past communists have even stated that the Democratic Party is now their home. Leadership like Pelosi and Reid are examples of the communists being in charge.
As for me, the gun issues are the least of the reasons for why I would vote for Fallin. As for the stimulus, didn't Coburn vote for it once himself? Are Oklahomans going to vote out one of the most principled politicians in Washington just because of one issue?
Askins has been and always will be a Democrat in party and philosophy. In spite of her attempts in her commercials to "appear" to be conservative, she is a far cry from being of that philosophy.
While I have disagreed with some of Mary Fallins actions in Congress, she is far, far better than the promise of another Oklahoma Democratic governor, willing to veto conservative legislation.
I don't care for the fact she voted for the bailout either, but for me, it's boiling down to my basic 2nd Amendment rights. I'm tired of having those rights diluted, and anyone that votes to continue doing so is telling me all I need to know.
Single issue voter? You bet…it's foundational with me.

Some are only capable of following a single issue at a time.
That's quite flattering, Veggie. Instead of being insulting, perhaps you could provide something more positive that would actually add to the topic at hand?
That was not directed at you, nor meant as an insult toward anybody.
It is an observation I have made of many of the people around me. 95% of them go into overload if they try to process multiple issues to weigh their vote, so they default to abortion, LGBT rights, Second Amendment, taxes, welfare, etc.

Very, very nicely put. Thank you.
Fair enough. In this particular instance, I believe I'm adept enough to balance several issues at once and still conclude that one's perspective on the 2nd Amendment is a decent predication on their belief in other issues like abortion, LGBT rights, taxes, etc.
Your point is valid. Mine was just a conclusion on a long path of balancing all issues.
Peace.

Either way, She gets a yes from me.
