What's the current rule on who gets the top spot on the ballot? Does that always go to the incumbent? Random? Alphabetical?

Should mix that up too. Random.

Random. There is a drawing/lottery.

I'm glad he's calling attention to the administration's perverse concept of justice. Should have done it through a personal email account tho

as much as I hate to admit it, the two-party system makes our government more efficient. it also prevents our government from getting some important things done. it depends on what you value, i suppose.

The important thing is that everybody is in agreement that Kobach is quite possibly one of the worst people on the face of this planet.

Most Kansas voters will continue to think he is a better person than whatever democrat runs against him, though.

He was pacifying a nutso caller by saying that was "unlikely to happen" but pointed out that the DoJ has already been racially politicized. What's the controversy here?

The same site publicized comments Kobach made in November in response to another caller’s question, in which he would not rule out the possibility that Obama’s executive action on immigration would lead to ethnic cleansing of whites.

I had to look that one up...

Quote

Kobach, a Republican, made the comments on KCMO 710, a Kansas City station, during his regular Sunday night show. Kobach took a call from a man identified as Steve who said that when one culture or race overwhelms another culture it leads to killing or displacement.

“Here’s an interesting, not a counterpoint, but an interesting additional point to that, I guess. What protects us in America from any kind of ethnic cleansing is the rule of law, of course,” Kobach said. “And the rule of law used to be unassailable, used to be taken for granted in America and now of course we have a president who disregards the law when it suits his interests.

“So while I normally would answer that by saying, ‘Steve, of course we have the rule of law, that could never happen in America,’ I wonder what could happen. I still don’t think it’s going to happen in America, but I have to admit things are strange and they’re happening.”

So again, he's pacifying a nutso caller and telling them he doesn't think it will happen, but he also says that Obama is trampling on the rule of law. I agree with both those comments. Again, what's the controversy?

Kobach is like one-half as nuts as Holder, Obama and the rest of the wack jobs on the president's cabinet. They compliment one another nicely.

Given the crap those lunatics have pulled so far, his answer was completely appropriate. If you think Obama isn't above that kind of crap you aren't paying attention or are delusional.

Yes, I'm defending Kobach here. Nothing in that statement was in the least bit unreasonable given the context of the question, the response and the politicized state of the DOJ.

For a group of people that genuinely believe anyone who opposes the president's agenda does so because of their uncontrollable racism, the outrage over this is particularly LOL.

Meh, I'm not so much

as

. This is the same bullshit game of distortion played against radio hosts all the time. Strip away the context of the crazy caller, spin the host's comments into the worst light, rinse, repeat. In both instances he politely disagreed with the caller's suggestion, but HE DIDN'T DO IT WITH ADEQUATE VEHEMENCE for the libtards!

And, as you say, the libtards aren't giving him the benefit of the doubt because they already know he's the devil (for requiring voter ID and opposing illegal immigration).

Nutzo radio callers are the republican base, of course he's going to agree with them

It's a pretty good practice to simply not respond to stupid crap like that. It legitimizes it.

Part of the base, but I'll take the right wing crazies over the left wing crazies any day.

We should leave the two parties with nothing but their crazies and take everyone else to create a third party.

The proper response woulda been " hey you racist piece of crap, get off my show!!!!""

Not worming his way around to giving an ounce of credibility to such a ridiculous assertion that is soaked in backwoods bigotry.
