by Dewey Fudge, for Dubiosity -  Retiring State Rep., Eric Proctor, is leading a recycling effort to give a new future to beloved family sofas whose frames have broken down. He sports a stylish former sofa from his East Tulsa constituent's living room.
  He said of his latest wardrobe addition (a hunter green plaid with a Sissertail yellow accent; "Some days a fella in this chamber would rather just blend into the floor carpet."
  He adds that the Scotch Guard anti-stain treatment evidently never wears out. He finds that especially helpful when confronted with petroleum executives who want to keep their full tax credit, even though his district's families were forced to give up their Earned Income Credit & lost their Insure Oklahoma healthcare policies.
  The recycling campaign brouchure simply says;
  "Please don't throw away your old sofa. Our struggling legislators face a pay cut & they can repurpose your upholstery into a fine blazer, worthy of the halls of state."
​     

  House & Senate Leadership met with Gov. Fallin, today. Their Press briefing outlined the upcoming June primary election message.
  "We will be rolling out a major media ad buy beginning Memorial Day weekend", said Senate Pro Temp Mike Schultz.  "There will be events in every House & Senate district where incumbents seeking a new term will listen with sincere expressions of humility and self loathing.". 
  Gov. Mary Fallin pledged to do all she could to join every incumbent in major campaign events. Fallin is convinced that her popularity with pro-life and pro-gun groups will play strong to the GOP base.
  "I believe the time to recount past records is unhelpful. We must renew the call for fiscal conservatism and legislative oversight."  Fallin said the narrative is only going to be advanced after her newest budget signing.  "Until that budget signing takes place, none of this new messaging will be helpful."

  Look for GOP incumbents to resume church attendance in their districts, especially visiting the largest congregations. There will be social media videos of lawmakers playing T-ball with their kids. Those who don't have kids will suddenly become 'Big Brothers & Sisters', on a 6 month commitment.
