No, it’s time for new blood at all levels of the political hierarchy.

Herb seems to be sincere in his desire for public service which is better than most who seem to enter politics for personal gain.

Why shouldn’t Herb be Lt. Governor?

I suggest Goyle. He is running for Congress and this would give him some exposure and get him out of the House. I thought it was telling that he had to expressly confirm that he would pick a Democrat. You would think that would be a given. But, considering who we are talking about nothing is a given.

Lots of experience in our Kansas state government, well liked on both sides of aisle. He's knowledgable in school and other important issues. And a baseball fan.
