The GOPe was on the way to losing this one.

Cruz can save it.

Will there be any rapprochement from the GOPe towards conservatives, or do they still hate us more than Democrats?

Ted Cruz is THE LEADER of the Conservative Party in this country.

Limp wristed no-name fools of the GOPe notwithstanding.

Not exactly. Cruz will rally people who hate the stench of GOPe. These folks might have stayed home, given Karl Rove’s putrid smell around the race.

Now they can say they supported their leader.

I’d guess Cruz is worth +5% right off.

Oh, they should be on their knees begging us. Mitch the bitch just got help from an O’Keefe style attack on Grimes and I’ll bet his staff is crapping their pants because it’s “partisan”.

What a bunch of worthless losers.

Look at these Election trolls, acting glad that Cruz is helping out Roberts who they feel should be hung at the RINO yardarms. All the usual suspects.

Indeed, Orman would be still be getting the rat and RINO vote against a different conservative Republican nominee.

This is getting tedious, the time for whining that Roberts didn’t retire has LONG since passed. Ted Cruz stands with conservative Pat Roberts, so should freepers.

I think the ‘friend’ has been the group such as ‘Palin, Paul, Ryan, Cruz,
McCain, Dole, etc.’ that have been in the state trying to pull his candidacy
across the line. Even the Koch Brothers are now stepping up to the plate for
Roberts. They just might make it work.

That’s why Reid hates the Kochs so much.. they negate RATS’ expectations and assumptions of republican spending on races.

BTW, how are you holding up after this VoterID ruling? I am infuriated and wondering how our side is going to fix this.

It will get fixed as there are other states out there with the same laws. Appeals should get a reversal unless there is a specific word or wording that needs to be changed in the statute.

See following link for discussion, map and table showing each state’s status.

http://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/voter-id.aspx

Introduction: A total of 34 states have passed laws requiring voters to show some form of identification at the polls. As of October 10, 2014, 31 of these voter identification laws are in force. Pennsylvania’s law has been struck down and will not be appealed; North Carolina’s law, enacted in 2013, goes into effect in 2016; and Wisconsin has been blocked by the U.S. Supreme Court from implementing its law for 2014, pending a court case. Texas’ strict photo voter ID law has been struck down by a federal court (an appeal is likely), and an earlier non-strict, non-photo law is in place. Scroll over the map below for state-by state details.

The remaining 19 states use other methods to verify the identity of voters. Most frequently, other identifying information provided at the polling place, such as a signature, is checked against information on file. See NCSL’s Voter Verification Without ID Documents.

Please note that some of the 31 states with voter identification laws in place have enacted stricter requirements with implementation dates in the future. The current, in-effect laws are used here, with footnotes that identify stricter laws to be implemented in 2015 or 2016.

So how do you explain why Sam Brownback is polling dead even with the socialist RAT running for Governor? He's the incumbent conservative Governor, and much younger than Roberts.

Because the Left has done a good job at portraying Brownback as an "extremist," so he has tacked left and is alienating conservatives.

>> he has tacked left and is alienating conservatives. <<

All the more reason why Sam "help illegal aliens for Jesus" Brownback was more deserving of a primary challenge than Roberts, IMO. Too bad Milton Wolf got 10X the attention.

Just search under O’Keefe in Article titles. There are 6 or 7, all with new information. If you can’t find them let me know.
