Kris Kobach Enters U.S. Senate Race, Misspells Own First Name

Kris Kobach’s U.S. Senate campaign is off to an inauspicious start.

we would stop calling him KKKobach. CKKobach just does not work. Poor thing, he is being held to his deeds and he thought Brownback and Trump would take care of all of that. I has a sad. I do not see him getting through the primary.
