[ChannelOklahoma.com - News - Henry, Claunch Debate Lottery Merits]
OKLAHOMA CITY -- Gov. Brad Henry called his lottery proposal the "only game in town" to bail out education Thursday night, but a Republican lawmaker said he wouldn't risk children's futures on such an uncertain scheme.
The governor debated longtime Rep. Forrest Claunch just hours after the state House backed off making a decision on whether to send the issue to a vote of the people.

What is the matter with the people deciding? We get ignored anyway. Anyone remember the cock-fighting bill, or did that happen to long ago (last September). Make your votes, then if we do not like the way you vote, then we can vote you out. Or what are we really paying you people for anyway!
