If you say so. So where are your statistics showing I'm wrong?
Sorry, I’m not your research service
Well that answers that.
Look, it's not my state so the only impact your governor's race has on me is I'm forced to sit through interminable Brownback and Davis ads on TV. But as with Roberts, Brownback's troubles are of his own making and let's not pretend otherwise. He made a lot of assumptions that haven't panned out and the state's revenue and ratings suffered as a result. He has cut education spending and that tends to piss off the Soccer Moms no end. He purged the party of the moderate wing and now they're coming back to get their revenge, along with the Democrats and a fair percentage of the Independents. So if he goes down in flames it's because be brought it on himself
Taking random text strings from your research results provides an interesting return. The number one response is the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a well know far left think tank who’s number one mission in life is to feed the media and left wing politicians with statistical arguments that bolster their Leftist agenda. No doubt, your sources rely extensively on this helpful input. Their data are well known to be carefully chosen and manipulated to suit their agenda. Here’s their school funding screed:

In the case of Kansas, they are no doubt comparing what Brownback has done with what Governor Sebelius illegally managed to do with the help of the State Supreme Court that she packed with sycophants and fellow left wing travelers. Brownback has cleaned some of that up and we are quite grateful.
Wrong site, but whatever. You chose it, where is it wrong? Bear in mind it’s comparing current funding with 2008, before three years of Sebelius/Parkinson increases.
