Moderate Republicans fall in Kansas primary blamed on attack ads
Kansas Senate President Steve Morris lost his seat in a GOP primary as moderates suffered in Tuesday's results. He blamed three weeks of conservative attack ads tied to Obama and Obamacare, funded by groups including Americans for Prosperity, the Club for Growth, the Kansas Chamber, and Kansas Right to Life, with Koch brothers’ involvement. Seventeen of 22 moderates were defeated in a partywide clash since 2011. Morris led a national group summit in Chicago while noting the ads' effective, negative impact.
