Miller vs. Medlock

I just listened to Randi Miller’s interview on KFAQ’s Michael DelGiorno show in which she announced her candidacy for mayor.

Here’s the problem with Miller:
Miller stated that her style is more one of dealing with issues behind the scenes rather than publicly like Mr. Medlock. I consider that to be a problem. Tulsa needs a strong and open leader to clean up Tulsa. If the leader is not aggressive, wise, strong, principled, and very transparent to the public, he or she will not be effective in reforming the “good ol’ boy network” of Tulsa.

Miller may make fine decisions, she may have the same principles as Chris Medlock, and she would certainly be a better choice than LaFortune.

But Randi Miller has made it clear from her past actions that she is not a transformational leader. Ms. Miller may be a voice of reason among the insane, but she is in no way a reformer.

Tulsa is at a crucial point in the course of our city. The "good ol’ boy network" that has been ruling Tulsa since before I was born is destroying the city. Tulsa needs a strong leader who can stand up to the mid-town elitists. Tulsa needs a reformer.

I endorse Chris Medlock as that leader.
