I would certainly not hesistate to introduce legislation that if a statewide incumbent resigns before the 2-year mark in their term that a special election should be called to fill the remainder (probably also barring an interim appointee from running for the office as well). It's not right that the appointee will be serving longer than the person elected to the office.

Of course you wouldn't. But what good would that do now?

No wonder you're so excited about him. He smells like another Gilligan-Sebelius rodent hack.

Every day in every way you demonstrate your ignorance about politics outside of whatever jerk-water Tennessee hamlet you infest. I report what I heard and of course you would assume that I'm excited about him. For all you know Biggs is pro-life. That'd make him your number one guy. Unlike Phill, Biggs is an experienced prosecutor and trial lawyer. He had an excellent track record in Geary and regardless of politics I think he'd make a good AG. And assuming that he isn't diddling his administrative aides, too, that'd make a refreshing change from our last two.

"Of course you wouldn't. But what good would that do now?"

To prevent the Governor from appointing a hack that wouldn't get to face the voters until 2010.

"Every day in every way you demonstrate your ignorance about politics outside of whatever jerk-water Tennessee hamlet you infest."

Oooh, must've hit a nerve with you, peaches. I don't like to toot my own horn, but I'd dare say I know more about Kansas politics (or any other state) on my worst day than you will ever know on your best. :-)

"I report what I heard and of course you would assume that I'm excited about him."

Well, knowing you so well, you always get excited over liberals and Communist dictators. Knowing that Gilligan-Sebelius would never appoint someone of the Vern Miller vintage, Biggs will be just another rodent hack.

"For all you know Biggs is pro-life."

Might be, but doubtful given Gilligan-Sebelius and ole Morry the Hump. Being pro-life ain't enough, either. But then, you've been told that about a million times. If it was, I'd be on the Huckster bandwagon. I'm not.

"Unlike Phill, Biggs is an experienced prosecutor and trial lawyer. He had an excellent track record in Geary and regardless of politics I think he'd make a good AG."

This makes my point. You wouldn't be excited about him if he wasn't a liberal. The fact that he faced off against Kline is an added bonus for you, since you harbor such serious pathological hatred against the man. The fact you consider him worse than the paid KGB agent and Communist dictator Salvador Allende shows you need to spend some time in a nervous hospital reevaluating your priorities.

"And assuming that he isn't diddling his administrative aides, too, that'd make a refreshing change from our last two."

Doubtful. He'll be another Gilligan-Sebelius hack doing her bidding. I was so hoping Morry the Hump would stick around and get his clock cleaned by Phill. You just hate it when I point out that he's one of the few people in public life who is better than the people for which he serves, and you're proof of that, since you're one of 'em. :-)

“Unlike Phill, Biggs is an experienced prosecutor and trial lawyer. He had an excellent track record in Geary and regardless of politics I think he’d make a good AG. And assuming that he isn’t diddling his administrative aides, too, that’d make a refreshing change from our last two.”

I don’t know what your bone is with Kline. He was endorsed by the Sheriff’s association and had a good rep with the KBI. He took the Johnson County DA spot as a lame duck despite the unreasoning hate he faced. As far as Tiller and Planned Parenthood, that is a nest of political corruption well documented by the pro life groups and the kansas meadowlark.
Chris Biggs was Tiller’s man in 2002. Until the air is cleared, it is like one mobster taking the place of another in a criminal organization. The names have changed but not the game.
Morrison buried the 30 charges and dragged his feet on Tiller. The allegation now is he was trying to shield Planned Parenthood. He would still be doing it if he could have kept his pants zipped.
Why should Kansas take the chance that Biggs, with his past Tiller connections, is anything other than Morrison with a dry wick?
