This is the problem Roberts and Brownback and Kobach all have this cycle; lifelong Republicans refusing to vote for them. In Roberts case, Orman’s candidacy gives them an affirmative and viable option to vote for.
The Republican Party no longer resembles the party of lifelong Republicans. Since 2010, it has become something completely different, and sensible Republicans are refusing to go along to get along. Sensible Republicans want their party back from the Tea Party Jihad. Being a life-long Kansan, i genuinly miss the days of voting for the candidate, and not the party. Kassabaum was a sensible Republican. When Roberts got started in his career, he too was a sensible Republican. The Republican Party now, however, has lost all its sensibilities. Kansans are very pragmatic, and collectively want government to function properly, and for the good of the people. The National Republic Party, led by Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, Huelskamp, and Palin, are a scorched earth bunch of yahoos who refuse to let government work under any circumstances, except for their own, very limited agenda. Kansans do not appreciate that approach to governance. We’re smarter than that. .

If they are a super pac against super pacs, why are they accepting money? It will definitely help but seems to be 100% against their stated mission. MayDayPac is working some kind of donation Jujitsu, they are not giving by giving or it’s a more is less thing? I don’t get it.
An Orman win is potentially huge for 2014 and for putting the filthy Kocks and their funds where they belong, out of business in Kansas.
Knowing what’s at stake makes just about every effort acceptable for the Democrats.
