Will Dems point to KS....

I've not heard much national talk about this at all but right now Kansas is the model that the right wants for the entire country. Needless to say, to date, it's failing miserably.

Do you think the Dems will point it out and when? It's right there for all to see.....

Look to Kansas.... The dems should make that an election mantra.

Only if and when Brownback is the Republican presidential nominee. In other words, never.

Here's something to conjure: a Brownback-Santorum ticket.

Interesting.

I'd think what Dave said above should be the response. The gov't of KS is a right wing nocturnal emission. It is also a nightmare and a glaring example that what W did will be a walk in the park compared to what we may get.

I agree with both you and Dave. I just don't think that the Dems have the stones to go after the big money behind what's going on in Kansas.

What Brownback and the Republicans have done in Kansas is an unqualified and undisguised disaster. That much has to be obvious to anyone and the fact that the chosen "remedies" are an increase in sales tax and the gutting of public institutions like education can only mean that the disaster was perpetrated deliberately precisely so that forced austerity and increased regressive taxation could be shoved down the people's throats.

If they try this shit on a national basis, there will be hell to pay. Revolutions have been fought for less.

Look to WI- same story. There's a reason Scooter's polling at 0% (latest CNN poll), besides the fact he can't function in a debate...

I'd be out on the trail hammering on this. Bernie should be as they say he has nothing to lose.

Koch's run Kansas, no reason not to go right at them

That was my thought when I read the thread title, it's something that deserves more mainstream attention than it appears (to me) to be getting.

The Koch brothers' pet lemur is governor of Wisconsin and they themselves live in Kansas. Coincidence?

Good to see you over here and sorry to hear you live in Wisconsin, bud. Y'all deserve better.

I hope you good folks up there show that piece of excrement the door in the next election.
