IOW, he is GOPe.

Wrong. He expects the Dems to retain the Senate, so his promise to caucus with the majority party is code for "I'm really a democrat". However he has to hedge his bet in the case the GOP takes over the Senate. Hence he makes a statement about being willing to switch after a couple of months.

You can see this when you listen to his rationale. Being with the majority is good for Kansas as it lets him get things done. So why should that change in a couple of months? Well, it must be if he gets a majority other than he expects and it isnt about being in the majority at all, really. Which it isn't.

Sounds like a man with no principles to me.

You make a good point about the Republicans if they win the majority - they shouldn’t accept him in their caucus

They don’t have the privilege of making that call. Whatever caucus he chooses, has to accept him.

I cannot believe that Kansas voters would go for this....

Oh really? Well, they’ve been sending a non-Kansan, whose legal residence is in Virginia, to the Senate for years, AND...... who by his own admission only comes to Kansas when he has an opponent. So, go figure.

You really need to be careful making statements like that on a world-wide web site.

Are there really idiots who fall for this cr*p?
____________________________________________________________

Well, if you believe the polls, about 46 percent of the people in Kansas are falling for it. Not saying they’re idiots, but according to your statement above, I guess they are.
