The Republican race for president has come to Oklahoma with the purchase of television commercial time by Mitt Romney’s “Super PAC,” Restore Our Future, and Rick Santorum’s campaign.
Romney’s Super PAC bought time through March 5th, just before Oklahoma’s presidential primary, while Santorum’s less-flush campaign bought a week’s worth, through February 22nd, available television station records show.
The Romney buy is almost $193,000; the Santorum buy is $47,000.
Curiously, in a state known for its radio listenership, neither entity has yet purchased radio time.
Restore Our Future was founded by Romney aides in 2010.
Here’s the rundown:

Given both of these two guys voting records they are going to have pour more money in to get the dung beadle off their voting records… Deeds not. Words.
