LAWRENCE, Kan. — Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts won't debate tea party challenger Milton Wolf ahead of the state's Aug. 5 Republican primary.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports that Roberts executive campaign manager Leroy Towns said Friday that Wolf has failed to outline positions beyond what Towns called vague rhetoric and false attacks on the senator.
Wolf campaign spokesman Ben Hartman said it's unbecoming for Roberts to duck debates and noted that Roberts previously had promised publicly to have them.
The 78-year-old Roberts is seeking his fourth, six-year term in the Senate. Wolf is a 43-year-old radiologist making his first run for public office.
Two lesser-known candidates also are on the GOP ballot. Shawnee County District Attorney Chad Taylor and Lawrence attorney Patrick Wiesner are seeking the Democratic nomination.

I certainly hope you’re being sarcastic. Otherwise, you have the IQ of a turnip.
And there were signs Reagan had begun to lose his mental edge before his second term ended.
Very,very ,very few people are physically and mentally able to keep up with the pressures and pace of everyday working life past their mid-seventies.The current aged Senators,Congressmen, and judges are all examples of why they should step aside gracefully .
Does Wolf have any voting record?

WHAT A DUMB ASS QUESTION! Yeah, in 6th Grade he voted for less playground reglations. How the hell can he have a “voting record” when he is not a politician, he is a “citizen candidate” as envisioned by the founding fathers? Your “Only Life-long Politicians are Eleigible to Serve” credentials are showing through.
“you’re assuming I’m approving of the decision and am a Roberts supporter”
You sound like it.
Clinton will only be a few months older than Reagan was when he was sworn in for his first term.

Hillary Clinton is no Ronald Reagan.
I think it should be mandatory. Anthony Brown the Democratic Nominee for Governor of Maryland refused to debate the other Democratic nominees and guess what? The dang guy won the nomination. That to me is so unfair. I will be voting for Hogan the Republican nominee. However, even though it was a Democratic debate, I still thought it was unfair for Brown not to participate.
Hillary Clinton is no Ronald Reagan.
Nobody said she was. We are just discussing ageism and whether it should be taken into consideration......I say yes.
Term limits needed. Roberts is prolly afraid of the debate for fear he'll drool all over the lecturn.
