As some of you may already know... Todd Tiahrt was defeated by a Moran. (Jerry Moran).
http://www.kansas.com/Todd and his family looked upset in the local paper.

http://wwww.majorityproject2010.com/endorsements/?gclid=CNTQ6KK9oKMCFRVlswod8Vm9oQToo bad for Todd, C-Street won't be the same with out you. C-ya! Don't let that door hit you on the way out.
Unfortunately, Moran is endorsed by Charles Koch, so I am sure if Moran goes the distance, Koch Industries will be getting some great kickbacks. (Am I the only one who sees humor in this; The guy who funds T-baggers though Americans For Prosperity is also bankrolling Moran...)
Subsequently, Kansas is a Conservative state that refuses to evolve with the rest of the world. Democrats winning in an election Kansas are rare... So it things look good for both Charles and the Moran.
