Another Kansas native may be headed to Senate

millerJoeKansas native Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., will be leaving the U.S. Senate next year, but another native Kansan may be going there to represent another state. Joe Miller (in photo), who narrowly won last week’s GOP primary in Alaska, was born in Osborne and graduated from high school in Salina. Miller is taking heat for some of his views, such as opposing unemployment insurance and wanting to privatize Medicare and Social Security.
