Bush presses Kansas fundraiser for Roberts in bid to keep GOP Senate
Jeb Bush urged about 180 supporters at a Kansas fundraiser to reelect Sen. Pat Roberts to help the GOP gain a Senate majority and "fix a few things" in Washington. He blamed national woes on liberal policies and noted voter concerns over college debt health insurance and jobs under the Affordable Care Act. Roberts faces independent Greg Orman in a race that could shape Obama era Senate control as lawsuits over party nominee replacements echo in Topeka.
