“Kansas residents have had him as a Senator for so long because they voted for him.”

Well yeah! And sure, people should be able to vote for whomever they want too. But just how’s that working out for our country? And as far as your comment to the effect that, “that’s just the way it’s been for a long time” makes it neither smart nor any way compliant with the vision of the founding fathers. And you are very wrong in your assertion that it’s “been that way from the beginning,” because it hasn’t. The truth is, Roberts should have been replaced thirty years ago, but like a lot of other states, Kansas voters don’t really care who they have representing them from the looks or it. One day, not far off as I see it, people like you are going to wake up and be completely surprised that the country they thought they had is gone!
I guess you are also o.k. with all those voters deciding that they want the RATs so they will get all that “free $hit” too. I mean after all, “it’s what they want,”right?
Good Senators: Lee and Cruz. Not much else!

You beat people with ISSUES!

You turn people off making it so personal.

Why in Heaven’s name will anyone WANT to be convinced to vote as a conservative, in office, if we repay their courageous stands by stabbing them in the back?

If you have no ISSUES to run on?

DONT RUN!

If you want term limits try and pass them, otherwise getting rid of someone just because they have been in office for a long time is foolish. He's conservative, save your ammo for one who isn't.

The "vision of the founding fathers" is the Constitution. Regardless of your opinion of how long one should be in office the founders didn't specify term limits.

One day, not far off as I see it, people like you are going to wake up and be completely surprised that the country they thought they had is gone!

You are advocating getting rid of one of he most conservative senators in congress and you think "people like me" are going to be surprised? Whatever bud.

I guess you are also o.k. with all those voters deciding that they want the RATs so they will get all that “free $hit” too. I mean after all, “it’s what they want,”right?

That the kind of leap of logic I would suspect of someone willing to replace one of the most conservative senators just because he's been there "too long".
