To run or not to run, that is the question

Rep. Jerry Moran, R-Hays, doesn’t like being labeled as “indecisive.”
But his flip-flopping on whether to run for governor has made Hamlet
appear impulsive.

    If the good people of Kansas continue to elect republicans then they deserve a reduction in social security, a reduction in social services, a reduction in affordable health care, higher gasoline prices (see record profits for oil companies) and just about everything big business stands for – What kills me is when the little old lady standing in line complains about the price of her medicine – 9 out of 10 times she will say she voted for Bush ! You ask a waitress if she would like to see a raise in the minimum wage and she says of course! And 9 out of 10 times you ask her who she voted for and she says Bush! Wake up people !

    I see one of the major problems here as the voters being unable to see past whether they are Democrats or Republicans. It matters little which you declare to be if you don’t look past the party politics and see who, not to mention what, you are electing! The political money machines continue to fool the American population, and the sheep just follow along bleeting.

    N. Martin – it’s pretty simple (unless you are an independent) the democrats tend to represent people whereas the republicans tend to represent big business. A fellow rocket scientist in an independent survey found that candidates tend to represent the interest of the party which might elect them. The sad part of our election process is that people tend to vote for the person instead of the party thinking “he’s a better person” even though the interests he represent is diametrically opposed to one’s own best interest regardless of which party one belongs to.
