It should be quite easy to show how the failed conservative agenda that failed in Washington has also failed in Kansas. Vital programs are underfunded and debt is worse than ever.

I lived in Kansas from 1983 until 1999. He seemed to stand for all of the things that were pretty well established (at least in my mind) as bad ideas. He was suspiciously religious.

It's good to see the chickens come home to roost. Conservative as Kansas is though - they've had some democratic governors in recent history.
