Taylor Ready For 1st District Campaign?

Blogger Michael Bates in Tulsa suggests that Mayor Kathy Taylor, who announced last week she won't seek reelection, may be preparing for a congressional race next year, writing, "I'm still inclined to believe that Taylor is setting herself up to run against Congressman John Sullivan next year. It would look crass if she said anything now, while he's still in rehab, but if she waited until he returns -- beginning of July at the earliest -- it wouldn't leave much time before the city filing period for someone else to get ready to run. The 'I'm rising above politics to take care of the city' approach would get her out of the mayor's race, make room for someone else to get in, without seeming insensitive."
