Focusing on Kansas, AP writer John Hanna wrote Monday about the multi-state campaign to drive all of the moderates out of the Republican Party and defeat lawmakers who refuse to swear fealty to the radical right-wing agenda.

He wrote of copy-cat campaigns in Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota, New Mexico, Texas and his home state of Kansas. He found that radical groups such as the Club for Growth and Americans for Prosperity are spending millions to defeat several dozen moderate Republicans in the Midwest and South, targeting prominent lawmakers who hold committee chairmanships and other key posts.

One of those being attacked viciously in Kansas is Sen. Steve Morris of Hugoton, who is president of the Kansas Senate and a major supporter of Kansas State University and the other Regents universities.
