I have been luke warm on the Kansas movement to oust Pat Roberts. On the one hand, the guy has been there too long, and has significant missteps, and on the other, I would much rather spend money defeating the disasters like McConnell and Gayham.

All this being said, I have yet to see a more effective ad this cycle, being run by anyone. This is well put-together and razor sharp in its cutting power. Wolf has not wasted a dime, and has gotten a great result witth his ad. Of course, its effectiveness will depend on how many T.V. screens he can get it on.

But I really hope our candidates in Mississippi, North Carolina, Alaska, Kentucky, and South Carolina can do something similar.

That tears it. Roberts is not getting my vote. Wolf will get it.

When I wrote an email demanding an explanation for Roberts’ obamacare exemption, he didn’t even have the decency to write back and lie.

47 years is easily 25 years too many.

Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore, and neither is Pat Roberts.

Why did the people re-elect him? No one knew?

The Brutal New Attack Ad...what's brutal...the truth?... that he does not live there, that he detests the ones he represents.

I'd vote for a requirement that congressmen have to stay within their state 50 weeks a year and who ever proves they left even for an hour would get the congressman's forfeited yearly salary.

I want my congressman in the line with me at the Piggly wiggly and driving the potholed roads with me, not eating a $100 steak in DC with a 'K' street lobbyist...

I support Pat Roberts. This primary challenge is a waste of resources.

I think we are playing with fire with this whole “doesn’t live in Kansas” thing.

If Roberts manages to win the primary anyway... I could see the Democrats trying to take him to court over the residency issue to get him removed from the ballot, with a liberal judge saying no replacement will be allowed and the Democrat wins by default.

I don’t put ANYTHING past the democrats, especially if control of the Senate rests on this race.

Landrieu doesn’t live in Louisiana, and we really don’t want her.

The campaign put out a radio ad pushing back, saying that people outside the state are trying to influence the election...

Well, yeah. Roberts would the “people outside the state” since he doesn’t live there.

Every conservative we can get in place is a step in the right direction. And as for the big important list, I’m pretty sure we’ve gotten rid of Cornyn here this year :)
