Oh this is going to get really really dirty by the end. Expect the worst from Roberts in the last 48 hours. I expect them to move from “he’s a democrat” to he “is like those black democrats” to “he is a muslim” in short order.

Oh, and total number of positive ads Roberts runs about himself? one. Just to say he “ran a positive campaign.”

Those kinda ads are just gonna make it sweeter if Orman wins. If Brownback trails in the Governor’s race all the way to election day,that’s a bad sign for Roberts.

But Orman lives in Kansas, so he’s one up on you there, Senator.

Well…THAT’S questionable, after spending some time in Kansas.

But I get your point, generally speaking :smile:

But, putting on a non partisan hat, that’s a pretty effective ad. And it probably will cause some pain.

Pat Roberts is all butthurt because he’s not going to cruise to victory in November.

And I can’t stop laughing at Roberts.

The thing is, he’s never called himself a Conservative. All of the ads he’s in specifically says he’s an Independent. Roberts is running scared and he’s screwing up, and bad.

“Like Obama, Greg Orman will saying anything to get elected,” the narrator says, “even pretending he’s a conservative like Pat Roberts.”

Um, Orman is not pretending to be like Pat Roberts. Pretty sure that’s not a winning strategy. Maybe Pat Roberts should pretend to be someone other than Pat Roberts. We’ll see if the national GOP can help him in that.

Oh, and you know who IS a Conservative?

Sam fucking Brownback, who’s about to get his ass handed to him on a plate.

Roberts is trying to portray himself as a stand-pat Republican conservative but the polls make it look like the big issue is that a whole lot of Kansans can’t stand Pat.

I think the ads pointing out he doesn’t even live here woke a lot of people up. Thank dog for that.

Orman should run an ad saying “Who is Pat Roberts?” and explain that he’s an asshole who doesn’t live in the state and who doesn’t give a fuck about Kansas - he only cares about his big paycheck"

And as soon as Roberts loses he’ll be staying in DC, never to return to Kansas again, even to say hi to his barcalounger. He’ll be moving on to pulling off “a Cantor” as an unofficial lobbyist for any DC law firm that’ll have him.

So the Beltway Republican Establishment swoops in to take over Roberts’ campaign – they don’t trust him to know Kansas better than a DC law firm/political consultant? That should play well for the Senator from Northern Virginia… (ahem).

Roberts is asking voters of Kansas to elect him for the same things he has been asking them for 30 years. Over those 30 years Kansas got nothing from Roberts except a candidate who doesn’t even live in the state.

Dump him

Well yeah,but I wonder how baked in the numbers already are. That’s why I threw Brownback in there. He doesn’t even seem to be closing the gap.
