POed KU fans?
This is what democrats do, try to destroy people for their political opinions and views.
No doubt they would like to get him fired as head coach for being “evil” and supporting a republican.
But clearly he felt the backlash. This is also what Democrats mean when they send people letters telling them “we know if you vote or not”. They hope the low-information people they target will think they mean “we know WHO you voted for”, and will remember how even the President of a major company can be fired for going against the left.
Schulz said that the Roberts’ campaign declined to remove the ad.

It’s stupid for a public figure to take a public political stance. 1/2 of your customer base will hate you for it.
Kansas State is pretty conservative as universities go so I think they would. They don't get the uber-liberals that KU gets.
I am not in favor of college football coaches endorsing political candidates. However, I am pretty sure that if he has endorsed the Dem candidate we would not be seeing this flap. And I am Very angry that he said his decision “embarrassed the university.” Why?
If he endorsed a Dem, all would be fine
When Lou Holtz was at Arkansas he appeared in an ad for Jesse Helms. It wasn’t long before he “resigned” because he was burnt out. Then he immediately took the job a Minnesota.
If he had endorsed Obama or some commie, they would throw roses at him and the press would declare him to be “outspoken” and “courageous.”
Dean Smith, Roy Williams, Bob Huggins endorse D’s and are heros
It wouldn’t surprise me if the outrage behind this is coming from demoncrat underground and/or daily kosmunists. The reason being is one of the local TV stations ran a story where they quoted daily kos as finding where Snyder asked Roberts to pull the ad.
I’ve suspected all along the DUmmies and KOSmunists have been doing a lot of stuff here behind the scenes, like hitting the local message boards and comment sections, in order to influence Kansas elections. I hope people don’t buy in to their crap. It just makes me want to reject their BS even more.

This I don't believe. Coach Snyder has been around enough microphones and cameras in his career to know that anything you say or do in front of them is going to be made public. How many times have we on FR ridiculed air-head young girls who have stated that she "didn't think her boyfriend would share those photographs"?
Although I agree with his endorsement of Roberts, I couldn't care less what someone who spends 24 hours a day studying football film has to say about a political issue.
