The flaccid liberal wing of the Oklahoma business lobby was thumped once again by State Rep. Randy Terrill last night as their candidate, Curtis Bruehl of Moore, finished a distant second to the Immigration and Reform Act author. The House District 53 incumbent soundly defeated his opponent 74% to 26%. Bruehl’s campaign coffers were flush with money from business groups who apparently favor illegal aliens running wild in Oklahoma. Terrill was outspent more than 3-1, according to officials in his campaign.
It’s been a tough month for the Moore Republican, whose enemies attempted a last-ditch effort to spin details of his bankruptcy into a full blown scandal. The attempt failed. Terrill will face Democrat Troy Green, a candidate he’s defeated twice before, in November.

Arrogance seeks humility….and Chesapeake is the most arrogant company in the state with Aubrey throwing his borrowed money all over the place.

I hate the fact that Randy (I hate Mexicans) Terrill is my rep. When are the poeple of moore/norman going to wake up and kick this racist out of office.

Brilliant, Aaron. Reduce the issue to race. Even you slow-witted dope-smokers should have figured out by now that that old chestnut doesn’t work. Why don’t you move out of Moore — no doubt the air will smell better.
