Democrat Chad Taylor has dropped out of the Kansas Senate race, according to local reports, complicating Sen. Pat Roberts’s (R-Kan.) reelection fight.
ADVERTISEMENT Local outlet Kansas First News is reporting Taylor, the Shawnee County district attorney, said he submitted papers to withdraw himself from the ballot at 4:15 p.m. Central Time Wednesday, just 45 minutes before the deadline to exit the race.
The race is now a three-way battle between Roberts, independent Greg Orman and libertarian Randall Batson. Now, Taylor’s exit may create more of a headache for Roberts, who has emerged as surprisingly vulnerable in recent weeks, with multiple polls showing him holding just a single-digit lead in the race.
The GOP incumbent emerged from a contentious primary fight with his campaign coffers depleted and his profile in the state bruised due to a heavy focus from his primary opponent on questions of whether he actually lives in Kansas.

See my post #39. There are too many RINOs for us to make any reasonable headway. Oh, YES, we want Ried out of there and that is the only benefit we will get out of it if we ‘get the SINate’ back. Believe me, there will be a hand full of RINOs that will vote for FRANK MARSHALL DAVIS’S OFFSPRING America-destroying agenda. We will really not have the SINate even though the numbers look like it.
So you’re not a bettin’ man?
Sadly, you’re probably right.
this is a test to see how many idiots they can get to crossover by making their guy appear more liberal, conservative or whatever they think will get them the win. It’s a test for 2016.
I hope the voters don’t fall for it.
Wichita was once the capitol of late term abortions in this country. It was a major industry and the source of most of Kathleen Sebelious’ money. The industry was supported in Kansas by Democrats and liberal Republicans, who are indistinguishable. These Republicans are no longer in power and no longer in the party. The are desperate to get back in the game. The Teachers Union is going after Governor Brownback and this ponzi scheme is designed to elect a Democrat to the Senate, which they can’t do if he runs as a Democrat.
The goal is to make Kansas abortion central once again. Quite a few freepers seem ready to help them in this quest, although now that they know, they won’t be able to use ignorance as an excuse.
We should vote for Democrats and help them win in other ways. They aren’t so evil. We’ll just pretend that abortion, organized criminal enterprises, destruction of American culture and economic success, and the spread of radical Islam doesn’t exist so that we can go after Republicans. What could possibly go wrong?
LOL!! I am a bettin’ man and I just got back from Vegas (where the OFFSPRING OF FRANK MARSHALL DAVIS TOLD AMERICANS NOT TO GO TO BACK IN 2009) with nothing to show, lol.
Democrat = different rules
hot air
“Do you really think we have a chance in hell of taking back the SINate this year?”
No. The GOP will gain a net of no more than four seats.
The most reliable Dem voters can’t do anything but vote straight party. If they have to vote for individual candidates they are going to get confused.
Well, the 17th Amendment
(Repeal the 17th) is one of the major reasons we are in the HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE we are in today, as I’m sure you know well. Thank you, bastard Woodrow Wilson, communist/progressive. @#$@##%@^ you Wilson.
Right, ScottinVA. The best we can do is at least the majority back, but McConnell will still make us look out like idiots :-(. We will not survive if the Establishment takes over.
my view is you must be a real conservative— No Amnesty— be willing to shut this crap government down—no abortion, no more global police and cut the damned spending or I wont waste my vote.
“... waste my vote ...”

Your vote is your voice, do not be silent.
If you believe your choice is between a lesser evil or the greater evil,
then it is your duty to choose a lesser evil.
This is a real war between good and evil.
You can not just take your ball and go home.
I will not do evil. I will not do lesser evil. I am sick of that.Bring me a real conservative— no blemishes— and know that I am legion.
Others will do the lifting for you.
You just stay at home and hide under your bed, OK?
Losertarians and Reid cheerleaders would do anything to elect the donkeys by not supporting the GOP finalist. Then come here and babble about defeating a RINO and how it was the GOP’s fault for not having a “pure” doctrine.
Never mind that the Senate remains in the donkey hands.
That alone makes him a bad candidate.
You must be the house physician for the Supreme Court. Seems you know that the old codgers there are a lock to stay on this side of the grass till 2017. Get real man.
He said "corn man - I can shoot two of your sons, or I can shoot one, which will it be? Answer me in 3 seconds or I'll shoot all three a' you folks."
Cornman re-states "I will not do evil. I will not do lesser evil."
And that, students, is how the CornMen met Darwin.
