This is not just another Gubenatorial election in flyover country. This is the beginning of Kathleen Selebius for Senate, either in 2008 (if Pat Roberts retires) or 2010 (when Sam Brownback will definitely retire).
Conservatives should not risk another Byron Dorgan, Kent Conrad, or Tim Johnson in America's future. It's vitally important for Kansas conservatives to make Jim Barnett's election a top priority.
Sebelius is seriously mentioned as a possible candidate for president or vice president in '08 since she is a Democrat who can win in a Bush state. Like Warner and Bayh she will be cast as a moderate by the press even if she isn't one.
I agree with you. Are Kansas Republicans finally united, or does the civil war drag on?
