Sarah Palin will campaign for incumbent Republican Senator Pat Roberts (R-KS) in Independence, Kansas on Thursday. Roberts is in need of help from the Tea Party favorite, as recent polls show he trails independent Greg Orman in this fall's general election.
Last week, the Kansas State Supreme Court granted Democratic nominee Chad Taylor's request to be removed from the ballot, setting up a two-person race between Roberts and Orman.
Roberts defeated Tea Party challenger Dr. Milton Wolf in the August 5 Republican primary by a relatively narrow margin of 47% to 41% in a bitterly personal contest that left many grassroots activists in Kansas disgusted with the heavy handed tactics of the Republican establishment. Roberts was hurt by Wolf's attacks on his residency claims, a weakness that may have sparked the strange turn of events that led to the withdrawal of Taylor and the rise in the polls of Orman.
The question is how far Palin's appearance in Kansas on behalf of Roberts will go to bring the embittered grassroots back to the Republican side....

So tired ....
.... good luck with the RINOs (GOPe, RNSC). Their horns are for stabbing conservatives in the back.
Sarah Pain is doing the right thing. We need every senate seat to stop the Marxist race baiter finishing the country off in his last 2 years.
For who? The GOP-E? Screw 'em.
Infltrators: they’re ANGRY about this. They would be HAPPY about this if they wanted to recapture the Senate.
They won’t even acknowledge that Ted Cruz NEEDS the Senate to start un-doing all the RATs’ damage.
Sometimes I wonder if those conservatives know which way is north.
Boner will give Obola everything he wants. He won’t even wait until he’s majority leader. He’ll do it in November during the lame duck session.
Oh, I get it all right. The RINOs won. And they’ll hand Obola everything he wants in the lame duck session.
No, you’re the one who doesn’t “get” it. If the Republicans gain control of the Senate, Obama is going to go all out destructive between Nov. 5, 2014 and Jan. 20, 2015 when the Republicans take control.
No, you certainly don’t get it.
Thank you Governor Palin for thinking in a sane and logical manner instead of cutting your ears off to spite your nose.
Only Nixon could go to China.
And Boner/McCockle are going to stop him?
Seriously?
Infltrators: they’re ANGRY about this. They would be HAPPY about this if they wanted to recapture the Senate.
They won’t even acknowledge that Ted Cruz NEEDS the Senate to start un-doing all the RATs’ damage.
They can’t hide their true colors.
Boy, you must be a seasoned prosecutor or renowned defense lawyer because you sure know how to eviscerate an illogical point of view.
It's the right thing to do. Roberts is not God awful - but Harry Reid retaining Majority Leader status is. For Palin, this is all about stopping Obama Care, and for all his flaws, Roberts is better on that than his opponent by a mile. This is the adult leagues here - the primaries are over.
Which is why Cruz stated he will oppose any lame-duck bills originating in that timeframe.
What was it Ghandi said about the GOPe? First they ignore you, then they mock you, then they fight you, then you win?
no no no.....not FOR anybody, but AWAY from Reid and the Democrats. They will screw you a thousand times harder and faster than the GOP E will.
I think some would prefer a democrat to defeat Roberts.
Some people will cut off their ears to spite their nose.
What are you nuts? The RINO card has been played and nothing trumps that around here.
I am no fan of Boner. But I hate Pelosi much more.
In this case we are debating Roberts, not Boner.
Which is why Cruz stated he will oppose any lame-duck bills originating in that timeframe.
Thanks for the good reminder. Cruz is a strategist. He anticipates the enemy’s next move and acts accordingly.
