A large part of Kobach's district is in Wyandotte County. That pretty much spells doom. The fact he beat Taff (something of a RINO) in the primary was a good start, but competing against a "vote for me, I'll give you whatever you want" leftist in Dennis Moore was too much to ask.

[Non-Sequitur]

A large part of Kobach's district is in Wyandotte County.

The 3rd District takes up all of Johnson County, all of Wyandotte County, and a big part of Douglas. In past elections, Moore has won by taking Wyandotte and Douglas and keeping the Republican margin of victory in Johnson under 60%. In this last election, Moore took all three counties. The other day a newsradio station here mentioned that Moore had been thinking of challenging Brownback this last election, but decided not to because he didn't think he could match Brownback for funds. The radio station went on to note that Moore won reelection against "what can only be described as token opposition." I never thought I would ever hear a Republican candidate in Kansas described like that.
