#10 - Bob Anthony
Starting at #10, we list Corporation Commissioner Bob Anthony. When first elected in 1988,
Anthony was not a favorite of most conservatives. Born into one of Oklahoma's most
illustrious business families (C.R. Anthony), most assumed he was just a rich guy looking
for a new toy to play with. How wrong we were. Anthony has often been alone in fighting
corruption at the Corporation Commission. Readers of our series on the mysterious death of
Norman businessman Ron Miller know that we have some very large questions about the
commission. Had it not been for the courageous work of Commissioner Anthony, the bribery
scandal, which sent one former commissioner to prison, would probably never have been
unraveled.
