Todd Tiahrt, definitely. He’s one of our own.
“Todd Tiahrt, definitely. Hes one of our own.”
Please note that I am pointedly NOT choosing sides with the RINOs, nor giving in to RINO threats, as some conservatives have done in KS-03 races. If Moran was not a conservative, I wouldn’t think twice about supporting his conservative challenger and taking my chances in the general. But with Moran being a solid, albeit not perfect, conservative, I think I’d rather have Moran as our Senate nominee and have Tiahrt stay in the House.
(And, no, I don’t think that this is inconsistent with my support for Herman Cain over Johnny Isakson in the 2004 GA Senate race, since Isakson had a liberal position on a central part of the conservative message (the right to life) and since Cain’s general-election prospects were just as good as Isakson’s.)
