This morning Dewey Bartlett Jr. is touting his new endorsements...But lets take a closer look at who these guys are. Then we can ask ourselves if we care
Mike Mazzei - He is from Bixby.
Brian Bingman - He is from Sapulpa.
Dan Sullivan - Sullivan is a Midtowner
Fred Jordan - Remember this guy? He is from Jenks.
Ron Peters - Mid-Town Guy.
Terry Simonson - Simonson works for the County....Chris has come out against County Sales tax...this is not surprising.
Don Burdick - I like Don, but he is a Downtown Booster.
Todd Hiett - He is from Kellyville.
So these guys either aren't From Tulsa, and probably don't have Tulsa's best interests at heart, or are Mid-Town and Downtown power brokers...
Chris is going to represent the parts of Tulsa that aren't mid-town and downtown, and that scares a lot of elites. See past the rhetoric and see these endorsements for what they are...an attempt to keep an elite in the office of Mayor.
Speaking of endorsements, did you know that Bartlett endorsed Democrat Kathy Taylor for Mayor before she dropped out, and before he decided to run? I pulled this off bing.com's cache for Taylor's website (Bartlett's endorsement has since been taken down, cache and this picture are all that's left)
Bartlet didn't seem to concerned with who the Republican nominee was going to be a few months ago when he endorsed Taylor. Is this the kind of Republican you want to be our nominee?

I've learned one good lesson in the past several weeks.
Make sure you support/endorse people who hold your values. It seems the connection Bartlett has with Kathy Taylor is getting him in quite a bit of trouble with you, Bates, and Medlock.
You going to the Meet and Greet?
