    Is Attorney General an elected position in Kansas?

    If it is, I hereby donate the following campaign ad script to whoever runs against Phil Kline:

    EXTERIOR DAY: A nice suburban house in a nice suburban neighborhood. A pretty teenaged girl comes out of the house, locks the door behind her, and walks off down the street. A disreputable-looking man in a 3-piece suit (who may just happen to resemble AG Kline) enters the frame from the opposite direction. The camera tracks him as he scuttles up the walk to the house, jimmies the door open, and moves down the hall into what is obviously the girl's bedroom. He begins rummaging through dresser drawers, tossing her clothing onto the floor until he comes to the underwear. He picks up a pair of her panties and examines them minutely, finally burying his nose in the crotch and inhaling deeply. FREEZE FRAME.

    Voiceover: "Would you elect this man to the number-one law enforcement office in Kansas? Sadly, you already have."

    Candidate: I'm [name] and I respect your family, I respect your privacy, I respect your rights. Vote for me for Attorney General on Election Day.
