Lobbyists Try To Save Roberts

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Our U.S. Senate, bought and paid for by the 1%. The best money can buy, right?

Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) is leaning heavily on K Street as he tries to save the Senate seat he’s held for 18 years.

Roberts has been burning up the phone lines in a frantic bid to keep pace with Greg Orman, the wealthy self-funded independent who is leading the incumbent by 10 points, according to one poll released Sunday.

“The old man is raising 100 grand a day. I’m serious. Ask any lobbyist of anyone in Washington if they’ve gotten a call from Pat Roberts. He’s stepping up,” said one Republican source close to the campaign.
“It’s amazing what a little fear will do to somebody,” the source added.

A survey of prominent Republican lobbyists revealed that Roberts, the senior Republican on the Senate Agriculture Committee, is reaching far and wide to collect chits he’s earned over 34 years in Congress.

Does anyone think a Democrat controlled Senate is preferable to a GOP controlled one?
