Kansas is lucky to have the opportunity to elect a young committed Conservative with your credentials. We can complain about That One and Pelosi or start grooming the horses. Aragorn: It is an army bred for a single purpose: to destroy the world of men. They will be here by nightfall. Theoden: Let them come . . . Theoden: So it begins. Theoden: So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate? Aragorn: Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them . . . Theoden: The Horn of Helm Hammerhand will sound in the deep, one last time!

If a candidate is willing to go along with the ethanol boondoggle because it is expedient, then we just have another typical R politician.

Brownback. Conservative activists should make supporting you a priority in the upcoming cycle. But I hope you will reconsider your position on ethanol subsidies. You note the importance of fidelity to conservative principles and here is one area where we need real leadership. The first step in forming a sound national energy policy is ending the boondoggle that is the corn ethanol subsidies program. But this will require GOP members from rural states willing to take a stand for what's right instead of what's expedient. I know there are political considerations that must be taken into account. Maybe it's not realistic to suggest that a first time candidate running for Congress in a rural Kansas district can oppose ethanol. But I hope as time passes and your seat becomes safer that you will reconsider your position. Mr. Wasinger,

We cannot downsize and ignore the the nuclear deterrent mission and CUT missile defense systems at the same time, that is a recipe for destabalizing the current strategic balance away from our favor. Your stance on defense matters would be welcome here at RedState.

How do you feel about a program that has children wearing uniforms and taking oaths but it's not the Boy or Girl Scouts but is government mandated? (volunteer)......How do you feel about Republicans NOT standing up for We The People of The United States of America? They have laid down and let the D's walk over them as if they were shag carpeting. I wish you success and pray that when you get to Washington you do NOT LOSE your conservatism. I hope you will come back and remind us here closer to the election. How do you feel about 90 percent taxes on a small group of Americans?
