Roberts wins in Kansas even after the Democrat's switch-a-roo. Those are the types of wins you get during a, dare I say it, wave election.

Roberts ran hard against #amnesty. His victory in #KSsen has big implications for GOP and 2015 agenda.

Kansas, I know you have problems with Roberts, but you just avoided being bitten by the biggest snake in this election cycle. #Election2014
