The cowardice of Senator Jerry Moran is legendary in Kansas. Former state legislature colleagues tell stories of Moran avoiding tough votes by literally hiding in the state capitol building little boys’ room. Former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert singled out Moran in his book describing how Jerry “ran and hid” when he got scared. It’s no wonder that Jerry is the butt of jokes even among his closest allies. His former campaign manager says Moran “represents a weathervane in the US Senate, not the good people of Kansas.” It’s no wonder that Jerry is the butt of jokes even among his closest allies.
Jerry Moran is a coward.
Last week, under the enormous, unbearable pressure of a handful of western Kansas Democrats with homemade signs, Jerry Moran caved and became the third Republican to join Democrats in support of advancing President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee: “I think the process ought to go forward.”
Liberals salivate at the prospect of replacing the late Antonin Scalia with someone in the image of Barack Obama. The president’s nominee, Merrick Garland, is pro-abortion and anti-Second Amendment. The New York Times drools: “A Supreme Court with Merrick Garland would be the most liberal in decades.”
And Jerry Moran says the nomination ought to go forward!
Americans came to know Jerry Moran in 2014 when he, as head of the NRSC, diverted Republicans’ donations in efforts to defeat conservative Republicans in Kansas and Mississippi, even allying with liberals promoting a Democrat get-out-the-vote effort. And now Jerry Moran is joining the Democrats on a matter no less critical than the swing vote on the United States Supreme Court.

Don’t look at me, I supported Milton Wolf.
Yes I have become real suspect with regards to these conservative ratings. They should be even lower than they are.
KS people will forever swear that Moran is a conservative; maybe they don’t want a conservative?
