I don’t know. Roberts is an awfully decrepit, out-of-touch, tired-blood, career politician (and it was more than exasperating that he wasn’t successfully primaried), but ‘unlike’ all of the other noxious and commonly-cited RINO’s, he seems pretty dependably anti-amnesty and is solid on social issues. Adding the factor of the Dems’ duplicitous effort pushing an “independent” candidate, it’s probably just enough to push me over in Roberts favor. Unless some Kansans can come up with some really egregious transgressions I don’t know about. Which I’m entirely open to hearing.
In essence, I don’t think Roberts is quite in the same rancid league as McConnell, Cochran, Graham, Alexander, and such. Those backstabbing bastards aren’t worth the powder to blow them up. Ditto for Cornyn in my own state, who will NOT be getting my vote this November.
Oh I agree there are worse. But he is what he is and situational ethics are what they are. If we keep excusing open rino crap at every level, we may just as well get behind Romney now and embrace our inner liberal. Why lie to ourselves about what we are? If we are willing to bend over lets just admit it and move on together as open moderates.
