Why did Paul Davis lose?

Brownback rode the massive republican wave to victory.

In other news, Nixon rode the massive anti-McGovern wave to victory in 1972!

You guys actually to want to add something of substance, or am I wasting my time?

Occam's Razor. It's not that complicated. Even if the year was only mildly good for Republicans, Brownback still would've lost.

Okay. Again, do you have anything to add, man? I'mn not trying to be a jerk. I'm decrying the degraded level of analysis here. Please don't try to use Occam's Razor again? And please don't hit me with Godwin's Law because of this post?

Dude, learn your history and culture- with regards to U.S. elections- and this is so much fun. It takes some time but lurk more.

My bad. Davis actually lost because 42 year old feminist soccer moms in suburban Kansas turned against him due to the strip club story. Is that better?

What bothers me more is that the polls were consistently so off.  Davis led all eight polls issued after October 12th.  Similar story for Orman.

Lesson learned: do not trust Kansas polling, because no matter what, the Republican wins anyway.

Well, I doubt we'll be in a situation where a Democrat leads in any Kansas polls anytime soon.

You sound like a real asshole.

Not to mention his pretentiousness is completely unwarranted. His sole contribution to this thread is "muh suburbs trending D, muh rurals trending R". You know, the same thing that's happening almost everywhere. Hardly groundbreaking or insightful analysis.
