Democrats Seek Fallin Link To Askins Attack Commercials; Claim DC Pollster Ed Goeas Involved

A trio of Democrat attorneys is seeking evidence that Washington pollster and consultant Ed Goeas of The Tarrance Group has violated the law by orchestrating commercial attacks on his client's opponents, The McCarville Report Online has been told.

Goeas told TMRO he had nothing to do with the commercials.

Alex Weintz, communications director for Republican Mary Fallin's campaign, told KTOK's Reid Mullins this morning, "I know that's not true (that Goeas was involved)...our campaign had nothing to do with these ads...we focus on our positive message.... we would have said, 'here's Mary's positive message.'" (Hear the entire interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzkBWg_BoJI)

The trio apparently has been working for about 10 days as they try to connect Goeas to the attacks, which surfaced in Oklahoma with commercial attacks on Jari Askins paid for by a third-party group, the Republican Governors Association.

Goeas, an Oklahoma native, is the primary consultant to Fallin's campaign. Goeas also is the primary consultant to the RGA's chairman, Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour, and counts the RGA itself as a client. Less than a month ago, Barbour was the featured draw at a Fallin fundraiser in Tulsa.

Said Goeas: "The RGA's Independent Expenditure team in Oklahoma -- which placed an ad highlighting Jari Askins on her liberal record on illegal immigration -- has their own set of vendors and consultants. I am not one of them, and I am prohibited by law from coordinating with them, approving their ads, or even offering them my advice. Quite frankly, if I were allowed to do any of that, I would have told them the best way to help Mary Fallin's campaign is to focus on her record of conservative leadership. Mary has stood up against the Obama Administration's failed policies -- on health care, immigration, and taxes, just to name a few areas -- and she'll continue to do so as governor while offering her positive vision for job creation and fiscal discipline. That's what her campaign message has focused on, and that's what I'd tell anyone looking to help Mary to focus their campaign commercials on."

Oklahoma's trusted source for political news,

The McCarville Report Online

The attacks on Askins began about two weeks ago with a commercial claiming that her record shows she is a liberal. The controversy has continued, and the RGA last Friday aired a second commercial critical of Askins. On Saturday, the RGA took the attack on Askins to the national level with an ad on the Drudge Report seeking to tie her to President Obama and congressional liberals.

The first Drudge ad showed it was paid for by the "RGA Georgia 2010 PAC." The current ad shows it to be paid for by the Republican Governors Association.

The Fallin campaign, asked about the commercial, quickly disclaimed any involvement, citing the law. Weintz told TMRO, "Mary and her campaign did not have anything to do with the content of the ad nor were we asked to approve it nor can we legally do either."

It apparently will be the contention of the Democrats that Goeas, in his role as Fallin's primary consultant and with the clout he carries as Barbour's consultant and a consultant to the RGA, orchestrated the attacks on Askins as a surrogate for the Fallin campaign.

It apparently will be their contention that other clients of Goeas have benefited from similar attacks on opponents in other states.

And they reportedly plan to make the point that the lack of a connection between a candidate and third party groups allows one side of a campaign to attack the other side while avoiding criticism for going negative; it is their claim that a connection exists in this case and thus, the Fallin campaign is doing indirectly what it can't, under the law, do directly.

It could not immediately be determined what the group plans to do with its allegations other than make them public; candidates and third party groups have wide latitude legally in what can be said about candidates.

A Democrat source with details said just going public with the charge against Goeas may be as far as the Democrats will take it.

Some political insiders have been baffled by the attacks on Askins. They question why a front-runner like Fallin (polls have shown Fallin with a double-digit lead) would have anything to do with attacks on her opponent when the perception is that she's comfortably ahead in the race. They also note that the first attack commercial on Askins came before Fallin's own positive commercials began to air; that's simply bad tactics, one said. Another said the RGA runs the risk of its anti-Askins campaign backfiring on Fallin: "Not many like the idea of outsiders sticking their noses into our business," he said.

See related story below 

A GOP insider said the commercials likely are driving Askins' "negatives" higher than they have been. He notes that Fallin's favorable-unfavorable percentage has been about 4-to-1, while Askins' has hovered in the 2-to-1 or slightly more range and he expects that will drop as a result of the anti-Askins commercials. However, there have been no post-primary polls in the race that have been made public; any data contained in the earlier polls is far out-dated.

Fallin's Pollster Claims Clear Leader Mantle

Mary Fallin is the clear leader in the 2010 race for governor of Oklahoma, her pollster and chief strategist claims.

Ed Goeas, president and CEO of The Tarrance Group in Alexandria, VA, told those listening in on a Fallin conference call that his firm's survey was taken in June of 600 likely voters.

He said it showed three out of four were unfamiliar with Fallin’s Republican challenger, Senator Randy Brogdon of Owasso.

Goeas said Fallin leads Democatic Attorney General Drew Edmonson, 53 percent to 37 percent, and Democratic Lt. Governor Jari Askins, 54 percent to 35 percent, in head-to-head matchups.

"At this point in the campaign she has somewhat higher name ID than either of the two of them,” Goeas said.

The survey showed 75 percent had never heard of Brogdon.

Goeas said the survey showed 62 percent had a favorable opinion of Fallin while 20 percent had an unfavorable view. Brogdon had 6 percent favorable, 6 percent unfavorable.

Fallin Seeks Pentagon Review Of Behenna Case

Congresswoman Mary Fallin today used the case of Army 1st Lieutenant Michael Behenna of Edmond to stress the importance of due process in the military justice system.

Fallin asked Pentagon officials to reevaluate whether due process had been satisfied.

The question came during a hearing of the House Armed Services Committee, of which Fallin is a member.

“We need to make sure the Uniform Code of Military Justice is applied fairly in every case and that men and women in uniform are afforded every opportunity for a fair trial,” Fallin said. “I am grateful for Lieutenant Behenna’s service to our nation and will continue to monitor his situation and insist due process is satisfied.”

In March, Behenna was convicted of unpremeditated murder while serving in Iraq and sentenced to 25 years in prison. Earlier this week, he was denied a new trial but plans to continue through the appeals process. His sentence was reduced to 20 years by the commanding general of the 101st Airborne.

Behenna's civilian attorney has filed an appeal with the U. S. Army Court of Appeals, citing the misconduct of prosecutors in withholding evidence favorable to Behenna from his attorneys and the court martial panel.

Study: Boren Backs Obama At 81% Level

Democratic Congressman Dan Boren backed President Barack Obama 81 percent of the time in the president's first six months in office, according to a new study that said Obama is on pace for the most successful presidential year in recent history in terms of congressional support. The study is reported in today's The Oklahoman.

Republican Rep. Mary Fallin had the second-highest score in the Oklahoma congressional delegation in presidential support this year. She backed Obama's position 50 percent of the time.

The scores were compiled by Congressional Quarterly, whose publications cover Capitol Hill and national politics.

But the measurements of presidential support were based on relatively few votes.

According to CQ, the president took a position on only 26 votes cast by the House and 37 cast by the Senate.

One notable issue on which Fallin backed the president and broke from the majority of her party was on the bill allowing the Food and Drug Administration to regulate tobacco.

Among Oklahoma Republicans, Congressman Frank Lucas had the lowest presidential support score, at 27 percent. The others: Senator Tom Coburn, 33 percent; Congressman Tom Cole, 38 percent; Senator Jim Inhofe and Congressman John Sullivan, both 43 percent.

Edmondson Makes Governor's Race Official

Attorney General Drew Edmondson confirmed today that he will seek the Democratic nomination for governor, a seat once held by his uncle, the late J. Howard Edmondson.

Edmondson, the son of the late Congressman Ed Edmondson, joins Lt. Governor Jari Askins in the race, which is expected to see a record sum spent in a Democratic primary for the office.

Edmondson said his advisers believe the race will cost between $5 million and $6 million: "It is going to be a very expensive race," he said.

Republicans Mary Fallin, 5th District congresswoman, and Randy Brogdon, state senator from Owasso, have announced as candidates for their party's nomination.

Edmondson said the biggest issue facing the next governor will be the state's economy and budget, which this year experienced a $900 million shortfall due to declining energy prices and the faltering economy.

Edmondson To Announce He's Running

Attorney General Drew Edmondson will announce he's a candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor tomorrow, sources say.

Edmondson's entry into the race sets the stage for what most believe will be one of the most interesting, and contested, Democratic primaries for governor, pitting two statewide office holders with access to huge warchests battling over the airwaves and everywhere else.

Edmondson has scheduled press conferences in Oklahoma City, Tulsa and Muskogee. He's already created a campaign fund and initiated an "Edmondson 2010" Internet site.

The press conferences are scheduled for 10 a.m. at the Capitol, 2 p.m. at the Tulsa Press Club and 4:30 p.m. at the Muskogee County Courthouse.

Democrat Askins, of Duncan, Republican Congresswoman Mary Fallin of Oklahoma City and Senator Randy Brogdon of Owasso have already entered the race.

Fallin, Inhofe Ask Questions In Behenna Case

Jim Myers of the Tulsa World's Washington Bureau reports today that Senator Jim Inhofe and Congresswoman Mary Fallin have taken an interest in the case of Army Lt. Michael Behenna of Edmond, convicted by a military tribunal of killing a suspected Al Qaida member in Iraq.

Meyers write, "An Oklahoma family that believes their son did not receive a fair trial before being convicted of murdering an Iraqi detainee has turned to the state's congressional delegation for help.

"In a letter to members of the delegation, the mother of 1st Lt. Michael Behenna said the prosecution improperly withheld evidence that might have helped her son.

"'I witnessed at that trial the most egregious Brady and discovery violation I have ever seen,' said Vicki Behenna of Edmond. 'The disclosure violation and prosecutorial misconduct cut to the heart of Michael's trial, his truthfulness, and has undermined our confidence in the integrity of the military justice system.'"

J. C. Watts Says He Won't Run For Governor

J. C. Watts announced today that because of business and contractural obligations in Washington, he will not seek the Republican nomination for governor next year.

The announcement followed 24 hours of speculation he would opt not to make the race. The former 4th District congressman has built a thriving lobbying business and is in demand as a public speaker at conservative and business events.

Watts issued this statement: "After much prayer and deliberation with my family and friends. It is with a heavy heart that my wife and I have decided not to run for governor in 2010. I have observed with great interest and pride the progress my state is making under the bold and innovative leadership of the state legislature. Nothing would give me greater joy and satisfaction than to go work with these leaders to grow and prosper Oklahoma. However, my current business and contractual obligations create hurdles that I cannot overcome at this time. Oklahoma has much to offer both nationally and internationally. I would challenge the candidates running for governor to put their best foot forward to advocate for us on both stages. The new Governor must aggressively pursue and promote the virtues of our state. I would cherish that opportunity, but unfortunately that will not be in 2010. Many Oklahomans, Republican and Democrat, red, yellow, black, brown and white, from all walks of life encouraged me to make the race. I am deeply honored, humbled and grateful for the confidence they have shown in me.
I'm sorry we won't fulfill our goals together. I will continue to work for a prosperous and thriving Oklahoma, this glorious place we call home and the rest of the world calls America."

Congresswoman Mary Fallin, an announced candidate for the GOP nomination for governor, said, "J. C. Watts has been a great friend and a great asset to the people of Oklahoma. He is a popular figure both here and nationally and I am sure he will continue to find success in or out of politics. Decisions like this are never easy but at the end of the day I am sure he did what he felt was best for him and his family."

Pollster Suggests Watts May Eye Senate Race

A North Carolina-based pollster, Tom Jensen of Public Policy Polling, suggested today in a KTOK interview that former Congressman J. C. Watts may be eyeing the U. S. Senate seat now held by Tom Coburn as well as the governor's race.

Jensen's comment came in an interview with the station's Reid Mullins. Jensen was discussing a new poll by his firm that shows Congresswoman Mary Fallin leading the field of candidates for governor next year. Watts, who has indicated he's considering the race, was included in the poll. Also included were Lt. Governor Jari Askins and Attorney General Drew Edmondson. Senator Randy Brogdon, a declared Republican candidate, apparently was not included in the poll.

Coburn has not yet announced if he'll seek reelection; he said on Monday he will announce his decision on June 1st. Former Governor Frank Keating reportedly has his eye on the seat if Coburn opts not to seek reelection.

Fallin Rips ACLU Over Detainee Abuse Photos

Congresswoman Mary Fallin today participated in a forum investigating the consequences surrounding the potential release of photos depicting detainee abuse in the War on Terror and after it ripped the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) for "pursuing an agenda that serves no purpose other than to give aid and comfort to our enemies."

The photos may eventually be released in response to a Freedom of Information Act request from the ACLU. Although the Justice Department had initially signaled it would hand over the photos without contesting the request, an unnamed administration spokesman said today the White House now opposes their release.

The forum was attended by other members of Congress and included testimony from Tom Korologos, Former Ambassador to Belgium and expert in outreach to Muslim and Arab communities; Mark Pfeifle, Former Deputy National Security Advisor; and David Rehbein, National Commander of the American Legion

Following the forum, Fallin said, “The ACLU is currently pursuing an agenda that serves no other purpose than to give aid and comfort to our enemies. Releasing these pictures will help no one except the leaders of groups like Al Qaeda, who will gain a powerful new recruiting tool and a new source of anti-American hate.

“No one is condoning prisoner abuse. In fact, the Pentagon is taking appropriate steps to punish the very small number of troops who might have participated in such misconduct and to ensure no further instances occur. We can pursue justice, however, without releasing images that will surely be used as a weapon against the United States.

“It is mindboggling that the ACLU could be so indifferent to the success of the two wars we are currently fighting, our national security and our diplomatic efforts, particularly in the Middle East. The warped vision of the constitutional process championed by their liberal army of lawyers and lobbyists does not represent the best interests of this nation, nor do their views represent those of mainstream Americans. The testimony of our expert witnesses today, all of whom oppose the release of these photographs, has strengthened my belief that the ACLU is pursuing an agenda that will make Americans less safe.”

McIntosh County: No Record Of Watts' Vote In 2006 Governor's Race But He Says He Voted Absentee

Examination of the voting records of the five announced and potential candidates for governor next year shows that one of them, former Congressman J. C. Watts, apparently did not vote in the 2006 general election for governor.

At least that's what the record shows. However, Watts insists through spokesman Chad Alexander that he did vote, and he and his wife, Frankie, completed their absentee ballots and mailed them together. Her ballot is shown as having been received, while his is not.

Watts, who registered to vote in McIntosh County on June 28, 2004, listing a rural address a few miles outside his hometown of Eufaula, always votes by absentee ballot, county election board records show.

The records show he voted once in 2006, in the July 25th Republican primary. But there's no record that he voted in the general election, in which Congressman Ernest Istook was pitted against incumbent Governor Brad Henry, a race Henry easily won. Two calls were made to the McIntosh County Election Board to confirm that no record exists of a Watts vote in the general election and Alexander said today he also spoke with the election board and confirms there's no record of Watts' absentee ballot having been received.

Watts has not yet announced he's a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor, but he is expected to do so soon. He is now a Washington lobbyist.

Records in Stephens County show that Democrat Jari Askins, lieutenant governor who is an announced candidate for her party's nomination for governor, registered to vote at her current address in Duncan on October 20, 1971. She has voted at least 67 times. In 2006, the record shows, she voted on February 14th, April 4th, July 25th, August 22nd and November 7th.

Records in Tulsa County show that Republican Randy Brogdon, state senator who is an announced candidate for his party's nomination for governor, registered to vote at his current address in Owasso on August 13th, 1980. He has voted at least 38 times. In 2006, the record shows, he voted on July 25th, August 22nd and November 7th.

Records in Oklahoma County show that Democrat Drew Edmondson, attorney general who has not yet announced he is a candidate for his party's nomination for governor but is expected to do so, registered to vote at his current address on December 18th, 2005. He has voted at least 10 times; he was a regular voter at his previous address as well. In 2006, the record shows, he voted on March 7th, May 9th, July 25th, August 22nd and November 7th.

Records in Oklahoma County show that Republican Mary Fallin, congresswoman who is an announced candidate for her party's nomination for governor, registered to vote at her current address on October 24th, 1986. She has voted at least 63 times. In 2006, the record shows, she voted on March 7th, July 25th, August 22nd and November 7th.

Is Watts About To Announce In Governor's Race?

There's word today from multiple sources that former 4th District Congressman J. C. Watts, now a Washington lobbyist, is about to enter the 2010 governor's race.

Watts has said for weeks he'll make a decision by Memorial Day. If he gets into the race for the Republican nomination, he'll join Congresswoman Mary Fallin and State Senator Randy Brogdon of Owasso, both of whom already have announced.

In what appears to be a coincidence, word that Watts may be about to enter the race comes at the same time as word there's a new statewide poll that will be released on Tuesday showing that if Watts does enter the race, he will be in a competitive position with Fallin, considered the front-runner for the nomination.

"He's at 95 percent (to run)," said one source in a position to know.

Fallin's pollster, The Tarrance Group in Washington, earlier distributed a memo to supporters showing Fallin in the lead. The late April poll showed Fallin preferred among registered Republicans with 45.3 percent of the vote to 25.9 percent for Watts. Brogdon, of Owasso, got 5 percent.

A SoonerPoll released earlier this month showed Fallin at 48 percent, Watts at 34 percent.

Democrats Jari Askins, lieutenant governor, and Drew Edmondson, attorney general, are the top Democrats. Askins has announced, Edmondson has not.

Fallin: 'Little bit insulted' By Watts' Comments

By Jerry Bohnen/NewsRadio 1000 KTOK ~ As an already-announced candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor, U.S. Representative Mary Fallin indicated Thursday she didn't like what former Congressman J.C. Watts said about the field of candidates to date.

"I was a little bit insulted when he said there were no quality candidates in the race for governor," said Fallin in an interview on KTOK's First News with Reid Mullins.

"I spent a lot of time, investing my time and effort to represent the state, but he's a great friend." Fallin laughed as she made the reference to the insult.

It was Wednesday when reporters interviewed Watts, who is exploring the possibility of running against Fallin and Owasso State Senator Randy Brogdon in the bid for the GOP nomination.

When pressed about his "quality" comment, Watts said it's what voters have told him. "I think that's their concern. Does that mean that we don't have good candidates? I'm not saying that."

Watts went on to say he didn't mean to be "ungracious to anybody" or "disrespectful or anything."
