re: #293 fish
Becuase Republicans have become too liberal. Did either your Governor or Congresscritter turn D because the R was talking about ID or because they weren’t cutting spending and taxes like they had promised? Heck, I would vote for a D if he made me believe he was going to be more conservative than the R.
They turned D because of the national embarrassment that Kansas suffered when the R’s passed a bill mandating (not merely allowing) the teaching of creationism in Kansas public schools. The outraged public voted the offending R’s out, which means that the D’s got voted in.
