Dennis Moore is my representative in the Kansas 3rd congretional district.

He is retiring after 12 years.

Moore beat a solid democrat to get the seat and has obliterated all challengers in defending his seat.  It is truely an embarassment to the Kansas GOP that they can't scratch this guy.  Some of their contenders have been nothing more than window dressings (You can't let him run unopposed after all).

BTW: Kansas is supposed to be a red state...where does Kathlene Sebelius come from (and thank you for taking her away).

But, in the vacuum created by Moore no one wants to run.  All the "naturals" suddenly got very committed to what they were currently doing.  The word on the street is that it is "toxic" to be a democrat this year and this is an example of what they mean.

Sooooooo......

Dennis's wife is going to run....maybe.  Actually, it is a smart move given the name recognition.  And given the GOP's absolutely terrible track record in this area (which still just amazes me), she might win.

We will see.

Stephene Moore for Congress? "Stay tuned"

Retiring Democratic Congressman Dennis Moore threw out two words Saturday that give his party renewed hope of holding onto the 3rd District seat.

"Stay tuned."

Moore uttered those words today in Topeka at the party's annual Washington Days gathering. They were directed at the potential prospects of his wife, Stephene, who is apparently considering a run to succeed her husband.

The congressman told fellow Democrats during a luncheon to "stay tuned."

State Democratic Party Chairman Larry Gates also confirmed Stephene Moore is "possibly on the list." However, the congressman's wife said she hasn't made any decisions and declined to comment further.

The congressman is not seeking another term this year after serving 12 years in the U.S. House.

Lake Quivira doctor Elizabeth Gallup already has filed for the Democratic nomination and at least seven Republicans are running.

Dennis Moore is the only Democrat in the state's Congressional delegation.

I just read about Stephene Moore on the internet as well as the Kansas City Star.  She seems like a good down to earth Democrat, someone that I could support.  I found it interesting though in reading some of the readers comments in the Star, how mixed they are...some very supportive...some lumping her with Obama by lableing them both Marxists.  That seems to define our society today, whether in Kansas, Virginia, Ohio or anywhere in the USA.

Kansas in that respect is no different than the rest of the nation. Divided.  I can respect opposing opinions based on facts and logic, but not those that demean others based on ignorance and hate. Why would anyone hate Stephene Moore?

Updated Correction: When I had browsed through the various readers comments, some pertained to Dennis Moore and some to Stephene Moore.  The one referring to "Moore" as a Marxist was in fact referring to Dennis Moore, her husband, and not Stephene Moore. I'll see if some of the future comments treat her in the same light as her husband. I'll have to be more careful to not confuse the two Moores.
