Even more mind-numbing is the fact that Governor Brad Henry has not exercised any political capital, his bully pulpit, or public opinion to convince a fellow Democrat state leader to resign. This is the worst example of leadership in this case. We all knew that the southeastern Oklahoma good-ole boy network existed, but to turn a blind-eye to the corruption from the Governor’s office is just plain scary. Citizens will chalk this up to another story of a crooked politician, but it runs much deeper than that. The voters of Oklahoma should take notice of the state-wide candidates in 2010 and make sure their not cut from the same cloth of leadership as Brad Henry & Jeff McMahan.
