Nick Jordan Makes the Plunge

The Star has reported that Sen. Nick Jordan has publicly announced he is running for the 3rd District seat. Jordan has been in DC making the rounds with Republican officials and getting schooled in the art of campaign managment from NRCC officials. House Minority Leader John Boehner was in KC this week stumping for Jordan. It seems that the NRCC wants to clear the primary field for Jordan and prove that they are 100 percent behind his campaign. This will prove valuable, as neither Kris Kobach nor Chuck Ahner could completely get the resources needed from the NRCC after the organization poured money into Taff's race only to lose by 3 points in 2002. All eyes will be focused on Jordan's fundraising numbers for the end of this quarter--that will determine how much support he'll receive from the NRCC, and his level of support among big time conservative and moderate donors in Johnson County. Jordan is undoubtedly the best, most likable, most experienced, and most formidable candidate the party could put up against Moore. Check out his new website for any campaign updates:
