Any other year we might've had a shot. Oh well.

As a resident of teh 4th district, let me give you an inside perspective.

Pompeo has been playing the illegal alien card- over, and over, and over.

Goyle has attacked Pompeo for outscourcing, but I'm fairly confident this won't play well outside of Wichita.

Pompeo has been spreading the rumor that Goyle is muslim, whether this is true or not I don't know, but Goyle has been going around to different churches each weekend (taking communion too) to try to quiet this rumor. He even came to my church.

Goyle was caught taking Pompeo's words out of context, Goyle pulled the ad imeadiatley, but Pompeo has still been hammering him over it.

But Meeker is right that this would have been winnable in 2006 or 2008, but this year, Pompeo is going to ride the tea party, anti-abortion (always a strong presence in Kansas) wave.

Even Goyle's own internal has him behind.

[Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home.]

instead of running around to many different churches, why not simply hold a press conference professing you faith in Jesus as the resurrected Christ and give your testimony, while continue to go to your own church?  simple.

That's a good question, if he want everyone to know he's Christian.

Lol at all the Indian politicians converting to Christianity.

[minionofmidas]

Did he convert to Christianity, or was that his parents?

Of course calling a Hindu a Muslim would be far more invidious and insulting than calling a Christian a Muslim.
