But they came in with guns blazing in a PRIMARY to defeat the more conservative challenger.

When exactly did that happen?

I was in strategy session for a local candidate in late July. We were hoping for a low-turnout election and everyone was pleased that the primary season had been quite quiet. In particular, many were wondering if the Roberts and Huelskamp campaigns were overconfident because they had done so little. We got the low turnout we wanted so our unknown but more conservative candidate could overcome the name recognition of the well-known, incumbent moderate Republican. We got our people to the polls, the overconfident incumbent didn't.

"The NRSC sent six workers to the Kansas City area for the final 10 days, and they knocked on more than 10,000 doors in Johnson County alone, a party official said. A Washington phone bank set up by the NRSC also made more than 40,000 phone calls in the final three weeks."
