Lucas weighs in on McCain vs. Obama

Rep. Frank Lucas kicked off the Republican watch party to cheers here at the Marriot Hotel in northwest Oklahoma City. He told attendees to forget the polls, which he described as “interesting.”

“The fact of the matter is,” he said, “we have an outstanding candidate in the form of Senator McCain.”

He said this presidential election is the most historic since 1948.
