Jones Renews Challenge To Democrats
With the recent declaration by Senator Mike Morgan, a Democratic National Convention superdelegate, that he's supporting Barack Obama as his party's presidential nominee, Republican State Chairman Gary Jones renewed his challenge to other Democratic Party senators to declare if they support Obama or Hillary Clinton.
Said Jones: “Morgan has come clean, along with the governor, in showing their true liberal, big spending, big-government stripes. Now it’s time to hear where Nancy Riley, Charlie Laster, Richard Lerblance, Earl Garrison and the Lawton boys – Keith Erwin and Rick Wolfe – stand on the presidential race.
“I see where Senator Morgan believes Obama ‘will be a plus for legislative candidates across the country as the Democratic nominee,’ according to the Associated Press.
“Does that mean Senator Morgan will have Barack Obama come to Oklahoma to campaign on behalf of Nancy Riley, Richard Lerblance, Keith Erwin, Rick Wolfe and the rest of the Senate Democrat team?” Jones asked.
Jones then repeated his challenge to Democrat candidates to make public their presidential preference.
“If these Democrats want the voters in their districts to return or to send them to the Oklahoma Capitol, the voters deserve to know where they stand on the big issues like the presidency of our great nation” he said.
“Do they agree with Barack Obama on issues such as the right to bear arms?
“Do they stand with him on threatening the lives of unborn children?
“Do they share his many positions which undermine the American family?
“Would they raise taxes as much as Obama would?
“Do they aspire to be named the Most Liberal Senator in Oklahoma – as Obama is in the United States Senate?
“Do they think we should cut and run in the Middle East, and leave the sacrifices our brave young men and women have offered for naught?
“Would they accept the endorsement of Michael Moore, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, the ACLU and the Sierra Club?
“It’s time for Democrat candidates to shoot straight with their employers – the Oklahoma voters,” Jones concluded.
