Geez, what Republicans will do for the most conservative candidates possible. Let alone one who, if elected, would give Republicans two African American Senators and then set up the Tea Party spokesmen for their opportunity to start
lying talking again about how friendly the party is nowadays on race, civil rights, voting rights, poverty programs and wages etc. It's weird to how Cruz and Lee have endorsed Shannon so far but not the 3rd Stooge, Curly (Rand Paul). I have little doubt he'll eventually endorse Shannon to and he might be waiting for the primary to end for now just so he doesn't upset his fellow redhead congressional buddy.
I still have a little faith in Lankford though that he could eek out a win, but man, he should have been prepared for this. It is after all
Oklahoma which obviously has a strong bench of young Republicans who were vying for the seat even before Coburn decided to retire.
