"Dust in the Wind" or "Grassroots"?


By Brian Altenhofel - Posted on 01 November 2010

From Oklahomans for Responsible Government:

According to the database at the Oklahoma County Election Board, [Campaign Manager] Michael Kolenc registered to vote on October 11, three days AFTER the deadline to register for tomorrow’s election. Ethics Commission reports show he’s had an Oklahoma City address since February when he started getting paid as a consultant, yet he apparently didn’t care enough about Oklahoma to register to vote to make his voice heard in the primaries or the General Election! Yes on 744 has two other carpet-baggers as consultants, spokesman Walton Robinson and Matt Nappe. Robinson started getting paid in March and registered to vote on September 5th. Nappe came on board in July and registered on October 6th, two days before the deadline.

I think this should be enough to tell you that Yes on 744 does not have the best interests of Oklahomans in mind. These are guys who migrate from campaign to campaign and, in Robinson's case, pretend to have some sort of real interest in Oklahoma education.

The Yes on 744 campaign is more "dust in the wind" than "grassroots".
