As I’ve said before, Republican women are the lifeblood of the Oklahoma GOP. That’s why Rachel and I were honored to join the Oklahoma Federation of Republican Women for lunch today at their State Convention.
Lots of great Republican Women were there, like Jeannine Long, who I was happy to assist this past year as she secured the 2010 NFRW national board meeting in Oklahoma City. Jeannine sits on that national board. Also there today was State President Sara Jo Odom, Pam Pollard, Angie LaPlante, Phyllis Gorman, Dixie Galloway, Mary Jane Calvey, Debbie House, and many more. I’m proud to be a donor and supporter of the OFRW.

Me and Governor Huckabee
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee was in Oklahoma City tonight. My friend Scott Pruitt, former state senator and current managing partner of the Oklahoma City RedHawks, served as host.
I first met Scott and his family when I gave them a tour of the West Wing of the White House around 2003, and we’ve stayed friends ever since. Scott is very active with Governor Huckabee’s continuing efforts to elect conservative Republicans to office.
The event was at the Bricktown Ballpark during the RedHawks game. My mayor, Mick Cornett, a Huckabee supporter, spoke. And Scott was kind enough to introduce me to the assembled Huck fans. The Governor spoke eloquently and with his usual charm about the current crippling deficit, the Fair Tax, and other topics. He predicted gubernatorial victories this year in Virginia and New Jersey. He talked about Huck PAC and his Fox News TV show. And he sounded every bit the 2012 presidential candidate.
Lot of great Republicans there tonight, like GOP Chairman Gary Jones, Vice Chair Angie LaPlante, State Rep. Phil Richardson, Marc Nuttle, Sam Hammons and Crystal Drwenski, to name a few. Thanks to Scott for putting on such a great event, and giving Oklahomans the opportunity to hear in person from Governor Huckabee.
