Daily Kos: The Crazy Radical Andrew Rice"

Gasp. The Oklahoma Republican Party has just blown this race away by exposing State Sen. Andew Rice's (D) connection to the most radical of radical organizations. The most leftest of leftist groups. We're talking shit so far out of the mainstream, that I have the vapors just thinking about it.

What groups can these be? Well, please sit down before you click over to see. It's groups like:

Sierra Club ("Global warming alarmists")
Twenty-First Century Democrats ("ultra-liberal [...] leaders from Planned Parenthood and labor unions")
ACLU ("Civil Libertarians")
MoveOn ("Betrayus")
Some group called "Hollywood" ("Jeanine Garofalo")
Democracy for America ("They share the same values and vision as Howard Dean")
Stonewall Democrats ("Gay agenda")
The Communist Party (he is a Democrat, after all)

And don't get me started on the Progressive Alliance Foundation. "Rice founded The Progressive Alliance Foundation. Its goal is to convince Oklahomans that anti-war, pro-gay liberal values are actually our values. The group’s slogan is "Progressive Values, Mainstream Values, Oklahoma Values."

Imagine the horror! Damn it -- Oklahoma values are all about war mongering and gay-bashing! You know, good, and wholesome values like that!

But there's more! Read more...

OK Republican Party Exposes Rice's Web


State Republican Chairman Gary Jones announced a new web site today detailing the extreme liberal positions of State Senator Andrew Rice, the only announced opponent to Republican Senator Jim Inhofe.

Using a Halloween theme, Jones started AndrewRicesWeb.com calling Rice’s liberal connections “the spookiest fright of this Halloween.”

Fright Night: Rice’s Spooky Web of Liberal Connections

(OKLAHOMA CITY) State Senator Andrew Rice, the lone announced opponent to U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe, has spent a lifetime weaving a tangled web of left-wing political connections, as evidenced by a new website released today. AndrewRicesWeb.com highlights Rice’s work as the standard bearer for fringe liberal groups in Oklahoma.

“When Andrew Rice dresses up as an extremist liberal, it isn’t just for Halloween,” said Oklahoma Republican Party Chairman Gary Jones. “It’s who he really is.”

Paging Candidate Rice...

State Senator Andrew Rice, the only announced Democrat opponent to U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe’s 2008 reelection has gone completely silent as of late. The pro-choice, liberal Democrat has promised to run an open and transparent campaign, leading us to believe either he isn’t staying true to his pledge, or his campaign is just adrift.

For example, a brief glance at Rice’s campaign website reveals:

  • Rice’s campaign blog hasn’t been updated since the September 19.
  • Rice’s campaign hasn’t produced an original press release since September 11, opting instead to use recycled newspaper stories and Oklahoma Democratic Party releases as filler content.
  • Rice’s media page features one stale video from a fundraiser and pictures that haven’t been updated since his September 5 announcement.

Has neophyte Rice already lost his steam? Is his team incapable of fighting on all fronts? Or is Rice simply not running the open and transparent campaign he promised?

In fact, conspicuously missing from the Rice “Upcoming Events” calendar is a joint Andrew Rice/Jim Roth fundraiser taking place in Oklahoma City on October 11.

Only time will tell if Rice has given up on transparency, or if his campaign has simply become stagnant.

Extremism Hits Close To Home


While the Ethics panel continues to look into the GOP Fundraising, liberals around the state are taking advantage of that opportunity to really pander to their liberal base of supporters. REDOKLAHOMA has more to report on this story.

It is always good when the attention is on someone else. Who would've thought that Andrew Rice was associated with people like this? But then again he is just another liberal masquerading as a "moderate".

Race bodes well for state

As ugly and quarrelsome as political races can be, the electorate profits from them, and that certainly will be the case in the race for U.S. Senate in 2008 in Oklahoma.

Incumbent Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe will defend his seat against at least one candidate, and the race is sure to be filled with fire.

While Inhofe’s conservative value system reflects the value system of most Oklahomans, Inhofe’s long tenure has been filled with controversy.

Tell Me Something I Don't Know

U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe has predicted he will be a target of the national Democratic Party in 2008, but so far only a little-known state senator has announced he will challenge the Republican incumbent.

Andrew Rice, first-term Democratic senator from Oklahoma City, officially launched his long-shot race last week.
