To be clear, this endorsement is based on one thing – Gentner Drummond's name. It's a rowdy mix of dated storm chasing machinery meeting rural old wealth. It makes you think of gustnados, Val Castor and the Pioneer Woman's meatloaf. Outside of Doppler Pickens, there's not a more Oklahoma political gunslinger name out there.
To be fair, Drummond's opponent – Mike Hunter – almost has a spectacular name. I'm surprised Drummond didn't go all Bull Stitt on it. I can hear the ad now....
Gentner Drummond hates Obama, but Mike Hunt...... errr.... loves him. Mike Hunt....... errrr.... he's bad news. Vote Gentner Drummond today."
Seriously, why didn't Gentner go that route? He obviously has no class or standards. He is the guy who stooped to the sad low of exploiting the death of a young woman in a desperate attempt to smear an opponent. Check out this ad:
