 Brownback vs. Frahm: how a populist conservative congressman defeated the interim incumbent for Bob Dole's Senate ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Frahm's road to victory was softly paved with the early annointment from Graves plus a phalanx of financial contributors from some of Dole's top supporters.
According to Brownback pollster Bruce Blakeman, of Wirthlin Worldwide, a GOP firm based in McLean, Virginia, getting ahead of Frahm was an uphill battle because she had recently come off of a successful 1994 lieutenant governor's race running with Graves which left her with high favorable recognition across the state.

SEARCH: Frahm, senator, Dole, successor, Kansas UMNS stories may be accessed on the Internet World Wide Web at: http://www.umc.org/umns.html Produced by United Methodist News Service, official news agency of the United Methodist Church, with offices in Nashville, Tenn., New York, and Washington.

Noting the Kansas Prayer Breakfast is similar to the national event, but smaller, she said, it is "reassuring to know that this activity is quietly but effectively reuniting the world's people." Her quick reference then to John 3:16 stating God's love for the world was one of several scriptures she cited.
