Jim Slattery’s bid was rebuffed, prompting continued tension over the August primary and a potential showdown involving Kathleen Sebelius and Bill Roy Sr. The group weighed reappraisal issues and tax politics as Slattery weighs a return with a decision slated after February 24 Washington Day events.
