This mentality is why you people will continue to lose elections!

What mentality? Prove that what he said was wrong.

Idiotic. "Let the worst possible Republican candidate win. They deserve it. And, in addition, it imroves (slightly) "our chances". Typical far left-wing idiocy, coupled with overconfidence and naughtiness (Kobach will have good chances to win, especially with Orman running), fully ignoring the plight of people of the whole state (Democrats, Republicans, Indies, all sort of people), who will need to survive at least 4, may be 8 years of such "governance". But for far left "ordinary people" are as unimportant as for the far right - they are simply pawns. The only thing important to them are themselves and their "vaunted ideas"....

I mean.... you take issue with him but not the people actually voting for these idiots? I don't see any overconfidence. If the voters are so partisan and tribal that they will elect someone who is so obviously bad for the job, then yes they deserve whatever happens. Sorry. We need to stop coddling grown ass adults who put lunatics in positions of power.

Looks like Colyer is busing in illegals to gin up the vote margin but in the end he is finished. My prayers have been answered....Kobach was be the nominee

Be careful what you wish for. Hillary also wanted to run against Trump and we know how this turned out. I'm rooting for Colyer.

This race will not be decided by the undemocratic Electoral College.

Yeah, not really seeing Colyer pull if off.  Terrible news that the Kansas Republicans have nominated Kobach.  I hope his tenure as Governor is not as terrible for the people of Kansas as his tenure as Secretary of State has been; or even better, he does not serve as Governor due to losing the general election.

The voters of Kansas are, in theory, grown ass adults who should be able to make appropriate decisions and to bear the consequences of said decisions. We can stop babying the voters, folks
