David Boren
Anywone catch Chris Matthew's interview with David Boren yesterday? He is a former Senator from Oklahoma and a Rhodes scholar. He says that Obama probably has the highest IQ of any politician he has known. He has
written a book, "Letter to America", which has good reviews:

1. Don't let David Boren fool you.
I live in Oklahoma and in the district from which Sen. Boren served. He is a Centrist and a DINO just like his son Dan Boren. Oklahoma is a red state and will go for McCain in the fall. That is not defeatism but reality. Oklahoma politics have changed a great deal since I first voted in 1976.

3. He may be a DINO but he was very impressed with Obama and his thinking
I'm curious how Oklahoma was in 1976? Our state has always been blue, will always be blue, not much has changed there LOL...

2. I saw it, and he also said Obama knows what he doesn't know, that's a great asset
