Two Days To Go! Goober Award Expected Next Week.

Only two days to go before the Legislature declares sine die and goes home! It's been a tough session for them, with the budget crisis, a new governor?, and figuring out how to overturn initiative petition votes and all. There's some good ones, but they are in the minority - and I don't mean they are ALL in the Republican Party. Fortunately, many are drawing close to term limits.

The Goober Legislator of 2003 Award is widely rumored to be going to Senator Frank Shurden of Henryetta. While the selection is a closely guarded secret at the Committee it doesn't take more than a chicken's brains to surmise this one. Other contenders will be revealed this weekend.
