Kline barely won that first election and it was Johnson County that gave it to him.

Now they are begging for him and they can have him.

Hope he remembers to keep his law license up this time.

Uhh, yeah, Wordie - I need to talk to you about that. Johnson County may have backed him heavily in the first election. That was our mistake. But we didn't make that mistake this time - so why saddle us with him again. It wasn't Johnson County that put him in office this time - it was the stupid party members. They interviewed some of them on the evening news. Stupid, stupid, stupid - none of them could give a reason why they voted for him instead of the other two running. Hell, he doesn't even have any experience!!!! The only experience he has is in trying to cause trouble. Now he'll actually have to show up in the courtroom and try cases. God help us all!

He didn't seem to need experience to be AG and Johnson County gave him to the state. Now the State gives him back. Enjoy that Republican party decision.

Oh and keep an eye on your medical records.

Enjoy that.

This in today's Star:

Assistant district attorney Rick Guinn, who was a candidate for the top job and is Morrison’s chief assistant, said Tuesday he planned to leave the office. He said he probably will accompany Morrison to Topeka because he wants to continue serving as a prosecutor.

Also Tuesday, the Olathe law firm of Garretson, Webb & Toth issued a statement saying that assistant district attorney Scott Toth was joining its staff as a criminal defense attorney. Toth, regarded by many as the No. 3 person in the district attorney’s office, left in November after serving 18 years.


And this in today's editorial section:
Kansas City Star | 12/13/2006 | Kline’s selection was an insult to county voters

When Johnson County elected him to the AG spot originally (although I thought the whole state got to vote on that.....), he was an ordinary guy that seemed to want to put the people of the state ahead of any political agenda. This past year, it became painfully obvious he couldn't be trusted to do that.

Please don't blame JoCo for Kansas' mistake - we couldn't have elected him alone, so apparently more than just a few fell for it. Stuck with him, we are, though - I hope we can survive.
