Not sure I can agree here but, I also don’t disagree with your view.
But, the practicality of maintaining two homes, rented or owned would be very expensive.
Yeah, I know they make $175k. So do I and more.
I don’t expect em to reside in an apartment. They need to entertain and if they have chillun an apartment seems confining to me.
Flame suit on.
Here’s the rest of the story. Roberts has lived in Washington since 1969 when he moved there from Arizona to join the staff of Kansas Representative Sebelius (father in law of Kathleen), a Republican from Western Kansas.
Roberts was from Topeka and Oskaloosa, his father was a big wig in the Kansas Republican Party. When he graduated from Kansas in 1957 he went into the Marines and when he got out, he went to Arizona to work as a journalist. So, he hasn’t really lived in our fair state since 1957.
I don’t know how often he goes to Dodge City, but I suspect that it’s about the same as the rest of the state - seldom.
It’s an election year so he has dragged his conservative suits and shirts out of the closet and will wear them until after election day. After that, it will be back with the good old moderate gear that he finds so comfortable.
I would prefer to have a Senator who knows his state, spends some time in it, represents the conservative political preferences of Kansas voters, and isn’t Washington beltway pol. Roberts doesn’t qualify on any of those counts.
