(2,065 posts)The creeping malignancy of Koch money in politics, which started at the top, at the federal / national level, because that's the most corrupt and beholden to special interests, and also the furthest away from We the People, is finally starting to encounter snags and problems when it comes down to the state and local level, where elected representatives are still trying to serve their constituents (Hey - what a novel idea!). They clearly see the disconnect between the ulterior national agenda and motives of the Kochs and what the people want and need at the local level, and even the densest Republicans are starting to wake up. Great!!! But what really scared me was the threat that AFP and the Kochs can make that if the local officials did not go along with their agenda then they would be blitzed by negative attack ads - ulp! It takes real balls to stand up for your constituents these days! I sure hope that the Kochs and AFP will meet their Waterloo, and sooner rather than later, before they take the whole country down the drain with them!
