Brownback to Move on Presidential Bid
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Sen. Sam Brownback, a Kansas Republican and favorite son of the religious right, will officially enter the presidential race later this month in his home state.

''He will be fully announcing on January 20 in Topeka, Kansas,'' Brian Hart, the senator's spokesman, said Friday. The move was expected even though Brownback set up an exploratory committee in December to gauge whether he had enough support for a full-blown campaign.

After the announcement in Kansas, Hart said Brownback will fly to Washington to participate in the anti-abortion march marking the anniversary of the Supreme Court ruling.

2. Run, Sam, run, only if the election reform takes place. The only
horror worse than the g00f-in-charge would be the Sam-I-Am in charge.

4. Will He Resign To Run
you know, like Republicans criticized Kerry and Edwards for not resigning?

Yeah, Senator Throwback, uh, I mean Brownback should follow the example set by fellow Kansas son Bob Dole in '96 rather than leave his people without real representation because of his absenteeism.

5. The more press this guy gets, the better
He's certifiable and can only help the Dems create a vivid contrast and nationalize the election.
