Pompeo may end up too tainted from this to be viable in Kansas. |
Also,and you heard it here first, Doug Jones AL-D will hold his Senate seat. He’s been unapologetically liberal in the job and voters are happy with that. |
Really? That's will be great but I thought Doug Jones was a lost cause. |
He has 45% favorability vs 44% unfavorability in a super R state, and a rematch with Moore is possible. |

Hmmm the KC Star’s editorial board agrees with this: “Mike Pompeo, either quit and run for U.S. Senate in Kansas or focus on your day job” https://amp.kansascity.com/opinion/editorials/article236638158.html?__twitter_impression=true |
Seriously, it is one thing to be a sitting House member seeking a senate seat, but Hillary resigned from SoS to run for the NY seat. Pompeo could do the same. |
There’s probably a corruption or grift angle we normal people can’t see that he’s working. |
No, he is just another fundamentalist working for the Rapture. Oh, and isn't he a Koch funded politician? |
Behind the paywall, but Jake Sherman at Politico says Jeff Sessions is seriously considering running for his old seat. |

He likes to hum, "things go better with Koch." |
And a week later it’s official - Sessions is in. https://www.politico.com/news/2019/11/06/jeff-sessions-senate-alabama-000321 |
Wrong |
No. She was in Senate before she was SoS. She set it up when they bought the house in NY after the White House. When she ran for President she was a Senator. She lost and Obama appointed her as SecState. |
