In the end it looks like the D label doesn't hurt that much even in Kansas. Davis is looking to outperform Harry Reid's minion Greg Orman "(I)".
I doubt Harry Reid has ever had any contact with Orman.
I'm sure he has received a "thank you" note at least, considering Orman has donated thousands to Reid's campaign as well as other Democrats to help ensure a Democratic Senate majority.
Yeah, Scott Brown and Todd Akin were surely trying to ensure a Democratic Senate majority.
Well, some would argue that Akin did...and as for Brown, he campaigned a moderate who was trying to keep the Democrats from having a filibuster-proof majority, which falls into Orman's "moderate" image.
