I agree whole-heartedly with those poll numbers.  Gov. Henry is very popular and President Bush, despite winning all 77 counties, is very unpopular.  That gives me proof that the Republicans, though they will probably win Oklahoma, they can't take it for granted.  It will be closer than 2004, probably no more than a 55-43 margin.  This also gives two things for the Democrats.  It means if Henry decided to run for the Senate against Tom Coburn in 2010, he would have a very decent shot of knocking off the incumbent and it would also mean that the Democrats have a 65% chance of retaining the Govenor's Mansion in 2010.

Hahahaha.  Adorable!  Oklahoma is just the kind of state to go wild over Hillary cause she's just like Henry fo-sho.

Henry is popular because he's not running for federal office.  Again, see Bill Weld, 1996.

Henry would win a 2010 senate race. Bill Weld isn't comparable. Anyway even if he were to run for federal office, it's not like he will get 70% because of polls like these.

Just out of curiosity, what does Henry have going for him that Weld did not?

Contrary to popular opinion, living in a state does not by itself make you able to have a magic crystal ball with which you can accurately predict how a race will turn out.

You have the burden to prove your point. I do not. Many of the republicans here would agree that this seat leans Henry if he ran. This is also a distinction between MA and OK politics.

In other words, you have absolutely no ability to back up your own opinion?
