Sally Kern, the Oklahoma state legislator who was famously caught on tape spouting homophobic messages and comparing gays to terrorists, may face her philosophical opposite at the ballot box in 2010.

Brittany Novotny, a transgender attorney in Oklahoma City, is reportedly raising funds for a possible campaign against Kern, according to Gossip Boy. Novotny is a member of the Young Democrats of Oklahoma and is an LGBT Caucus National Committee representative. She started practicing law in 2007 at her private firm, specializing in civil rights and employment law.

Given her picture I suspect Sally would have a rather difficult time painting Ms. Novotny as a "dangerous pedophile trying to gain access to women's rooms for the purpose of molesting girls and women."   

I hate to be lookist, but in that regard, thank goodness Stu Rasmussen isn't moving to OK and considering running against Ms. Kern.

I thought that that the State Ledg in Oklahoma is pretty much how they put the mentally handicapped to work in that state.  Not that I wouldn't like to see her gone, but look at who put her in in the first place.
