“Outsider” Kevin Stitt begins process of hiring “Insider” cabinet

4:44 PM EST on November 15, 2018

In last week's election recap, I touched on Kevin Stitt's promise to run Oklahoma government as an "outsider businessman," bless us with "new perspectives," and save us from the partisan, ideologically driven politicians, consultants and other political hacks who have turned Oklahoma into the last-in-everything-but-four-day-school-weeks laughing-stock it is today.

Specifically, I questioned whether Stitt's "outsider businessman" schtick was sincere, or if it was just a hollow political talking point designed to make Oklahoma voters feel more comfortable voting for another Republican who will likely adhere to the same policies and playbook as his GOP predecessors.
