This Guy Needs To Go, And Others Like Him

From the New York Times: It is hard to find anyone who has seen Senator Pat Roberts here at the redbrick house on a golf course that his voter registration lists as his home. Across town at the Inn Pancake House on Wyatt Earp Boulevard, breakfast regulars say the Republican senator is a virtual stranger.
“He calls it home,” said Jerald Miller, a retiree. “But I’ve been here since ’77, and I’ve only seen him twice.”
The 77-year-old senator went to Congress in 1981 and became a fixture: a member of the elite Alfalfa Club and the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, which made him a regular on the Sunday talk shows. His wife became a real estate broker in Alexandria, Va., the suburb where the couple live, boasting of her “extensive knowledge” of the area....
In an interview, the three-term senator acknowledged that he did not have a home of his own in Kansas. The house on a country club golf course that he lists as his voting address belongs to two longtime supporters and donors — C. Duane and Phyllis Ross — and he says he stays with them when he is in the area. He established his voting address there the day before his challenger in the August primary, Milton Wolf, announced his candidacy last fall, arguing that Mr. Roberts was out of touch with his High Plains roots.  http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/08/us/senator-races-to-show-ties-including-an-address-in-kansas.html?_r=0
Pat Roberts is part of the problem that is Washington D.C. and elected officials.  Hopefully, he will lose his primary election to a true conservative, Dr. Milton Wolf.
While this article is slanted against Republicans, they could easily come to Nevada and look at Senile/Coward/Liar Harry Reid.
Reid is no longer a Nevada resident.  While he makes token visits to the State, he maintains his home in Washington D.C., at the Ritz Carlton.  He has no clue what is going on in Nevada and he has harmed many more Nevadans than he has helped.  He has personally put thousands of Nevadans out of work and has helped hurt the economy.  He is a complete disgrace and the only good thing is that he won't be around much longer.  There is no way he will run for another term, especially if the Democrats lose the Senate.
