Don’t underestimate the effect of an improving economy on the voters of Leawood.

My sister and brother-in-law are Leawood voters. They'd walk over hot coals to vote against the Floater.

I understand the sentiment, but this election is not about them or about Yoder. It’s about Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters.

A total cheap labor Chamber of Commerce sellout with his latest Dreamer amnesty bill.

Yes, he needs to be tied to a stake along the Nueces River. Maybe some drug running illegal will make him his b*tch.

Since Obama first took office, the Republicans have elected over 1000 officeholders where Democrats were the incumbents. In addition, many RINO’s have been sent packing. Those numbers would have been higher except for short sighted knuckledraggers insisting on advancing a candidate who couldn’t win in a three way race with the other two on death row.

Since I have not expressed my preference in the upcoming primary and any preference except to say that I never vote for Democrats, I would suggest that you have no idea what you are talking about.

Lol. And yet you trot out the lame old tropes we hear every two years. THAT is what I’m talking about.

Or would you care to restate your argument?

Sure, Trump was the least conservative candidate in the Presidential election, including Marco Rubio. I like winning.

It’s funny, but I listened to Trump on the campaign trail and heard a lot of conservative values. It took time to accept that he was serious, and he has since proven he was.

He was certainly not nearly as liberal on key issues as many of the others. On some issues (which happen to be less crucial to me), I would prefer he be more conservative. But on the bedrock issues for me, he is right where I want tne President to be.

Not being a career politician was a major plus for me.

All those State Legislators running in KS-2 are lightweights?

Good thing it’s more Republican than KS-3, I don’t think Davis will win.

Davis has a whopping $1.6 million, and he’s obviously trying to buy the office.

Steve Watkins has the most of the GOP candidates, but it’s just $608k. Whomever the nominee is will need considerable help to match Davis.

As Tip O'Neil is credited with saying, all politics is local.

Certainly decided by local people on local issues, but the outcome, especially this year, goes way beyond.

True that.
