Maybe that’s why they are ex lawmakers.
Frankly, this is an act of war committed by the GOPe and their minions.
I’ve had it with the party elites.
Every day it seems, there’s another illustration that not a dime’s worth of difference exists between Republicans and Democrats.
KS has a long history of crybaby Repubs turning RAT. Brownback is a good Governor, which is why the leftie media are posting fake polls.
Sounds like the "turning against" may be payback by RINO's
Seems to me that if these nimrods were "for Kansas values" they'd still be their representatives.
Thanks to these Repubs I’m inspired to do the same if Alexander/Corker win the primaries.
Hey y’all notice GOPe aren’t having op-eds written critical of them supporting Dems. Didn’t happen when Cuccinelli was running for gov and when Nunn got GOP support. Huh.

GOP Ex-Lawmakers Endorse Dem Candidate Over Kansas Gov. Brownback
Several Republican former Kansas officials have endorsed Democratic gubernatorial candidate Paul Davis over GOP incumbent Gov. Sam Brownback.
Republicans for Kansas Values, a group of more than 100 former lawmakers and GOP officials, including two former lieutenant governors and a former congresswoman, announced their support for Davis on Tuesday.
All of us are proud Republicans. We came together because of our common love of Kansas, our commitment to Kansas families, and our belief in moderate, commonsense leadership, former state Sen. Wint Winter said in a statement for the group. “We are deeply concerned by the direction Sam Brownback is taking Kansas. Today we announce our opposition to his re-election.”
Before the Tuesday endorsement and a recent poll showing him ahead of the GOP governor, Davis was a long-shot candidate for governor in a red state.
The group criticized the governor’s support for tax cuts and reduced funding for public schools. Republicans may also be turning against the governor over his efforts in 2012 to rid the state legislature of moderate Republicans in favor of more conservative challengers.

But... but... I thought Republicans are ALWAYS supposed to come together and rally behind the party nominee! You mean to tell me (gasp!) that members of the honorable GOP Establishment AREN’T backing the party’s conservative candidate?!?! Why... why, isn’t this what is demanded of us conservatives whenever the all-mighty Establishment and its apologists foists some squishy, moderate, unprincipled RINO candidate on us???
Here’s the web site that gives information on all of the RINO’s: http://www.scribd.com/doc/233897526/Republicans-for-Kansas-Values-Biographies-and-Memberships
I wonder if this will have any affect on the Senate Primary.
Uniparty Ping?
I wonder if the NRSC and other “moderate” groups will be helping out the Dem?
Upsidedown world, again. I thought those things were part of the Pubbie platform.
Republicans may also be turning against the governor over his efforts in 2012 to rid the state legislature of moderate Republicans in favor of more conservative challengers.
Dear Leader has taught the RINO's well....paybacks are now standard MO with the DC establishment.
Take it from someone is from and lives in Kansas.
