Be Careful What You Wish For

As a resident of the Missouri side of the metro, I don't pay too much attention to Kansas politics. However, I was very surprised to see that the Kansas House could not override the veto of Governor Sebelius to build a coal powerplant in western Kansas.

Perhaps the problem was with House Speaker Melvin Neufeld's exhortation of his fellow members.

Before the vote, Neufeld told House Republicans that it would probably be “the most important vote you’ll cast for the future of this state.”

It sounds like a few of them listened.
