“Tell me about this guy, is he conservative enough for us?”

I don’t know what his ideology is. But for some reason, the residents of Johnson County don’t seem to want conservative representation. The district have rejected one conservative Republican after another. Being a Kansas residenet, maybe you know what’s going on.

The elite country club type of Johnson County believe the crap and propaganda that the MSM feeds them.

Maybe that will change next year?

Because there are two Republican parties in Kansas, and Moore has built a very successful coalition of Democrats, independents who would rather puke than vote for anyone from the Phill Kline branch of the party, and moderate Republicans.

Moore has benefited from the fact that he has spent most of his time in office under a Republican president. He's been able to chart a moderate course and vote with Bush maybe a third of the time on less important issues. But now he's stuck with Obama and he's been forced to make some votes that aren't overly popular around here. He voted for cap-and-trade, for card check, and may be forced to vote for Obama's hell-th care plan. That won't sit well around here. So for the first time in 10 years or so the GOP has a chance. The right candidate will knock him off.

‘Moderate’ Republicans haven’t had any luck against Moore either.
