Brad Henry's elections as Governor of Oklahoma 2002 and 2006.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Brad Henry is still very popular 3 months into his second term, and if he keeps it up, there's no reason we can't elect another Democrat to replace him in 2010, and there's no reason we can't bring up a candidate to unseat Senator James Inhofe in 2008 and Tom Coburn in 2010.

Its strange that while Gov. Henry, a Democrat won re-election by a landslide margin in 2006, the Republicans not only kept control of the house for their first election to defend their majority in the State House since statehood, but tied the Democrats in the State Senate making it a 29-29 tie forcing Democrat Lt Governor Jari Askins breaking any ties.  Interesting, to say the least.  One may say we are moving right, and they would be right.  One may say we're moving left, and they would be right, as well.  So, the question is, are we moving right or are we moving left?  The answer is, yes.  We are moving in both directions at the same time.  Strange as it sounds, its true.

Now, if we only could translate that into the national level, we'd be in good shape!!!  That will take a lot of work, though.

The Democratic governors in KS, NM, OK, TN, or IA haven't been able to translate their popularity to the presidential levels or Senate races.

None of them have even tried to run for the Senate, so you can't really say that. You also just listed 5 states that went for W in '04, so even if they all had run for a Senate seat against a republican and lost that statement would hardly mean much at all.

I think he meant the Democratic party more so than the governors themselves, correct me if I'm wrong?
