			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.openleft.com/diary/13972/action-were-falling-behind"><img src="http://www.kansasra.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/quote.jpg" alt="quote" title="quote" width="200" height="145" class="alignright size-full wp-image-1322" /></a>The Kansas left is on the run and it&#8217;s starting to show.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.openleft.com">Openleft.com</a>, a liberal activist website, is promoting a blast email sent out by Mike Nellis, online director for the Kansas Democratic Party. In the email Nellis makes an appeal for all Kansas liberals to ease up on the purse strings to help Kansas Democrats in 2010. In fact, the KDP is so threatened by a resurgent Kansas Republican Party that <a href="http://www.openleft.com/diary/13972/action-were-falling-behind">even their online activism is beginning to feel the heat.</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Kansas Democrats have always had the advantage online, but our Republican counterparts are starting to gain on us and we can&#8217;t let that happen.<span id="more-1320"></span> Next November, we will face off against a unified Republican Party. That&#8217;s why we need to maintain our competitive advantage online.</p></blockquote>
<p>Nellis makes the case for $10,000 in donations to build a new website for Kansas Democrats to organize behind. Of course, Republicans know that it&#8217;s going to take more than $10,000 and a website to save Democrats next year.</p>
<p>While the admission by the left that they are in trouble is amusing news in itself, Nellis goes further to admit that Republicans are unified in 2010, even with competitive primaries across the state. The notion that there exists a &#8220;split&#8221; in the party is one that will be fabricated at will by the left when needed, but when push comes to shove, Democrats and Kansas liberals know the party is unified in seeing Republicans win.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s more, reading between the lines in Nellis&#8217; explanation shows why Kansas Republicans are so resurgent this election cycle.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8230;the Sam Brownback-led Republican Party is getting ready to nominate the <strong>most conservative</strong> slate of candidates in years and they&#8217;re starting to gain on us online. </p></blockquote>
<p><em>&#8220;The most conservative slate of candidates in years.&#8221;</em> How about that? Turns out Democrats are scared by conservatives. Would Kansas Republicans be in such a dominate position if it weren&#8217;t for the work of conservatives to keep the party standing on principle? Hardly.</p>
<p>Democrats know, and have finally admitted, what conservatives have known for years. <em>When Republicans stand on principle and the basic tenants of the Republican Party, <strong>they win.</strong></em> But when Republicans become liberals, they lose. It&#8217;s just that simple.</p>
