Yup, let's keep a 78 year old party hack! That's the ticket to victory.

THIS is what STUPID “libertarians” should do except that they are CLOSET LIBERALS paid by Democrats ro defeat Republicans and get STUPID “PURIST”people to VOTE for them!!!

Greg Orman and Chad Taylor were in cahoots from the get go. Taylor had no intention of running and has raised no money. This was a scheme to convert liberal Republicans to what they have been all along: Democrats. Orman is the Democrat candidate, no doubt, but he will try and fool the people of Johnson County long enough to get elected. Then he will have a vision, and join the Democrat Party.

The RINO LaPolice who tried to primary Huelskamp was claiming Huelskamp voted for the NDAA

Democrat Travis Childers is probably equal to Cochran on amnesty. Childers is more conservative than Orman.

Orman is pro-amnesty and Roberts is backed by Kobach.

Cochran deserves to lose more than Roberts. Also if Roberts is re-elected it will be easier to primary the more RINO and more Mitch-connected Jerry Moran.

“Our policy must be practical. It’s just not practical to say that we’re going to find and send back to other countries 11 million undocumented people. We’ve got whole industries in Kansas that would go away if we attempted to introduce such an unworkable policy. Towns like Dodge City and Garden City and much of the agricultural community in Kansas would be absolutely devastated.

Finally, our policy must also be fair to taxpayers. The 11 million undocumented individuals in America should be required to register with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) by a certain date, pay a fine or perform community service as an acknowledgment that they’ve broken the law, hold down a job, pay taxes, and obey our laws, and ultimately, at that point, if they want to get in line and apply for citizenship, they should be able to do so. Once we’ve done that, we should fully implement the e-verify system and hold employers accountable for hiring undocumented workers who have not registered with ICE.”

The Washington Post actually said “rally behind and independent candidate”?

I thought they still employed proofreaders!

who polls show is vulnerable

"Polls" may be the one poll by the Democrats, which looks like an outlier. The three polls by organizations that one might have actually heard of show Roberts leading, according to RCP. He's below 50% in tow of the polls -- but I just can't see Kansas electing a 'rat to the Senate -- even one dressed in Republican clothing.

Gov. Brownback was saying on the radio today that the plan was wait until after the primary to withdraw to ensure no other Dem could get in the race, thus leaving an "indy" to try to beat the RINO. Brownback was confident the "indy" radical liberal's record would be properly demonstrated.

Kansas may have elected a few dems in their time, but this should be a tough year to pull that off.
