Is Pat Roberts Defeatable? Should We Reciprocate What GOP Did To Daschle?
It ticks me off he just cancels the 9/11 Commission's investigation into the Bush Administration's failure to stop 9/11.

That was supposed to happen after the election.

Now he wants to investigate how the CIA uses covers... as a way to cast doubt on Plame's status.

Is he defeatable in Kansas?

Can't we give him the same treatment the GOP gave Daschle?

1. Actually there are
a few who need to be targeted.

Pat Roberts is certainly one of them.

bat-shit-crazy Jimmy Sensenbrenner in Wisconsin is another.

Mark Green is leaving Congress to run for Governor of Wisconsin so we should also be targeting that seat.

I'm sure there are 10-20 others we should be looking at.

9. Here's a pretty good candidate
He ran against Sensenbrenner last time and got something like 37% of the vote...for that area, the reddest of the red, that's pretty good.

His name is Bryan Kennedy. He spoke at the convention and I think he's pretty good. Here's his web site.

3. He'd be hard to beat
and Brownback is a far better target.

4. Serves Dems right for believing Repuke promises.
When will they ever learn? Dean says you can't trust Republicans with your money. Actually you can't trust Republicans.

8. I would doubt it

This is Kansas after all, a state giving Bush over a 60% victory.

But I don't know if Sebelius is popular. If she is, maybe she could run against him.
