Of course they would. But they protect their own because republican incumbents are only supposed to be removed by democrats. That is the natural order of things for them. The idea that the people of Kansas should be represented by another REPUBLICAN, is just abhorrent to them!
One by one, the powers that be are going after conservatives running for senate seats. First Brannon, then Bevin, now Wolf.
As Bones was wont to say to Captain Kirk, “He’s dead, Jim.” And so it is with Milton Wolf, so don’t try to turn him into another Todd Akin.
Politics is nasty business which means that step one in any campaign is to vet your candidate. Wolf has now been vetted and been found wanting. Unfortunately, there’s probably not anyone else out there will to stand up to Roberts. The last thing that Roberts wants to do is to have to run a campaign, but he will turn his dirt digging dogs loose on anyone who trys to run against him.
