QuoteFinally, Lawrence Democrat John Wilson stands up to offer his own cheeky amendment. If gun-free zones are so dangerous, he argues sarcastically, why not get rid of the metal detectors and guards at the entrances to this very building, which wind up costing Kansas taxpayers upwards of $200,000 annually, and just allow everyone to carry concealed weapons in the state capitol instead?Howell says that sounds like a great idea to him. The amendment passes overwhelmingly, as does the bill itself.This is fantastic

Looks like Brownback is still less popular than Obama in Kansas. Is Sam in trouble this November?http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/2014/PPP_Release_KS_221.pdf

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning. They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

If you look at the approval ratings, the Brownback approval rating from the online voters was lower than it was with the phone voters, but the disapproval rating was also much lower. There were a large percentage of "not sures".

There were a large percentage of "not sures".just a small sample from the large pool of 693 KS voters surveyed in this pollA pool of 693 voters giving an approval rating of 33% would have a margin of error of +/- 3.5% in achieving a 95% confidence interval. This means that Brownback very well could be leading among Kansas voters, but the race is most certainly very close at this point in time, and based upon this survey, it is more likely that Brownback is trailing than leading.

Both sides need to just knock off all the social engineering BS and work on the economy. Everything else will fall into place.

social engineering and economy are both very clear objectives and in no way intertwined

All of this talk about everyone paying their fair share and income inequality, raising minimum wages, etc. is totally unaffected by a poor economy? These kinds of issues never come up when the economy is growing at a normal rate.

Just give me more money!"Who gets hurt the most by a crap economy?The issue is that they haven't benefitted during a good economy, either. Looking at data now even during the several year "rebound" its apparent that the gains are still not returning to the middle and lower income classes that lost so much. Hence the argument for wage increases.
