GOP Strategist: Pat Roberts is "basically furniture in the Senate"...

He's basically furniture in the Senate, and the people in Kansas know that. You could give the average Kansan 24 hours to come up with something Pat Roberts has done in the Senate, and after 24 hours, even the crickets would be standing there befuddled."

-- GOP strategist John Weaver, quoted by the Washington Post.

Once again we see teapublican integrity.
In a three way race when Roberts was winning he was the greatest thing since white bread. All hail the GOP champion.
Now, without the advantage of a split vote and looking like a lost cause.

"He's basically furniture in the Senate"

Oh, it's nice that they eat their own.
It's better to remember just how little dignity these people have.
