28 Days Later...

There are now 27 days until the general election.

There are a number of secondary campaigns occurring beneath the surface of the general election. One, of course, is the stealthy battle for who will hold leadership positions in the Kansas House and Senate. The other is a less visible campaign, in which the grassroots party faithful will select the winners and losers.

On day 28, there will be at least two Republican winners who will resign from their posts as state legislators. They will be replaced by Republican precinct committeemen and committee women.

Those campaigns are already very, very quietly underway.
