And that comment, Non-Sequitur, is why Dennis Moore has been all but unbeatable in the 3rd District. Moore has done a good job of riding his rewp as a DA in Johnson County to beat back the charges of "liberalism". Between the Democratic strongholds of Wynandotte and Douglas Counties, all Moore has to do is come close to breaking even in Johnson County to win the 3rd District.
In a state wide contest Kline will be at the disadvantage because the Drive-By Media has done everything in it's power to paint Kline as a hick right-wing boob. Morrisdon will be painted as the crusading DA who has come to rescue the State of Kansas from the religous fanatics who are running the Republican party.
At this time I would rate Kline's chances at slightly less than even.

One of Kline's biggest successes as AG will, unfortunately, not be a campaign issue. Had the Supreme Court upheld the state courts overturning of the death penalty then Kine might have been able to use the liberal court as a campaign tool. Or if Kline had done something, anything to make it look like he was taking on the court over their school funding ruling. But he didn't. What Kline is going to be best known for come November is his taking on abortionists. And that is not going to help him with independents and the Johnson County moderate Republicans.
