How did Brownback get reelected? I thought everyone agreed his experiment in "Republican government" had failed.

That's what I thought, too. His democratic challenger wasn't particularly charismatic, but I didn't think it was to the point where a governor as horrible as Brownback would win again. I just can't believe this happened.

The most hilarious thing is how his campaign committed a few ethics violations to pretend they were endorsed by the state's university presidents. Despite the whole cutting educational funding so much it was deemed unconstitutional.

It's worse than I expected. Evan Williams did not help me.

The Senate really is going full retard. There is no meaningful distinction in the character of who gets elected to the former "upper house." They might as well put Ted Cruz as majority leader because he represents "the states" a lot more fully than Turtleman McConnell ever will. Looks like shutting the government down for 8 years because only you are the legitimate governors of the country was a winning strategy after all.
