Agreed. Pat Roberts isn’t ideal, but he’s far from the biggest problem in Washington. We need to keep that seat Republican. There are stands to make, but this is not one of them. There are a couple incumbents that I would not mind seeing gone in November (we’re looking at you, Mississippi), but Roberts won fair and square and we need that seat.

And of course, by being logical and reasonable and strategic in your thinking, some of the FR lo info's will come on and call you a "RINO lover" and so on.....waiting for them to attack you....3....2....1.....

I won’t be voting for Roberts in November. I’m not voting for anymore establishment R’s. But I also won’t vote for Orman.

From his website under “Reproductive Rights”:
“We’ve spent a lot of time over the last two decades debating whether or not women should have the right to make decisions about their own reproductive health. As a man,I’ll never have to face some of the decisions that women have to make. I know the women of Kansas are smart,and I trust them to make their own decisions about their reproductive health.”

From his section on “Supreme Court”:
“......In the Hobby Lobby case, the Court ruled that certain types of corporations can have religious values and as a result of that be able to deny types of healthcare to their employees because of the corporation’s views. This is a dangerous precedent to set and opens the door to many more court challenges from private employers.”

He’s scum.

From the point of view of keeping the seat Republican, Wolf is doing the right thing. The reality is that Orman has a good chance of winning the seat anyway. If Wolf can get him to commit to caucusing with the GOP, the seat is effectively a Republican one regardless of the outcome.

I wonder how long it would be before the Dems announce that their candidate is okay to hold office after all and that he should be allowed back in the race if Orman announces he’ll caucus with the Republicans.

“There are stands to make, but this is not one of them.”

I agree...while sitting in Arizona. Roberts isn’t ideal, but I’d rather see him in office than McCain or McFlake - my home state senators!
