Finally, a Democrat

State Senator Tom Holland, of Baldwin City, has Democratic Party leaders in Kansas behind him to take on Sam Brownback for Kansas governor. I almost wrote "challenge" Sam Brownback because it has seemed he's gov. in waiting, for lack of any serious challenger in the primary and general. Holland has a business background and is coming out swinging against Brownback. Not sure how much of a chance he has at defeating Brownback, who has money, clout and grassroots support statewide, having been a U.S. Senator. But Holland sure has his attack message honed already, casting Brownback as the Washington insider in a throw the bums out election year. Be interesting to see how much Brownback responds, or whether he waits to see if Holland gets any traction.
