Dole campaigns for Roberts in Senate race
ASSOCIATED PRESS
DODGE CITY — A newly upholstered chair and an American flag dominated Village Square Mall on the west side of Dodge City, the Kansas hometown of Sen. Pat Roberts, who is seeking re-election. But the man who took the seat — and who commanded the audience of more than 200 — wasn't Roberts.
"He's your friend, my friend, Kansas' friend, and Kansas' greatest senator, Bob Dole." Roberts said.
The Monday campaign event for Roberts, who is locked in a suddenly tough re-election battle in typically Republican Kansas, was more an honor ceremony for Dole, the 91-year-old former Senate majority leader, World War II veteran and 1996 Republican presidential nominee.

Republican Sen. Pat Roberts speaks during a campaign stop at a mall in Dodge City on Monday while former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, right, listens. Three-term incumbent Roberts is facing a challenge from independent candidate Greg Orman.
Dole held court for nearly an hour, reminiscing about his 46 years in Congress, his effort to spearhead the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. and, now and then, Roberts.
"Pat and I have been friends for some time," said Dole. "When I had a problem in the House getting a bill passed, I'd call Pat."
Dole hearkened back to his collaboration with the late Democratic Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan to ensure that Social Security remains solvent through 2027, recalling how they agreed: "We can't let this fail. There are 30 million Americans who rely on Social Security."
By contrast, Roberts argued that only a Republican majority could fix the Senate's impasse and referred to Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid as "a dictator."
Republicans need to gain six seats to capture the majority and until this month, Roberts was not considered vulnerable.
But Democrat Chad Taylor's exit from the race — and the rise of independent Greg Orman, a wealthy businessman from the Kansas City suburbs — have suddenly made this
"We have to get the Senate back so we can get things going again." Roberts said.
— have suddenly made this
seat a national target. Republicans have held both Kansas Senate seats since 1938.
Bob Dole is the last of the statesmen," said Floris Jean Hampton, a retired rancher who lives near Dodge City. Asked if she would vote for Roberts, Floris said, "Everything's on the table."
Dole appeared physically frail and his formerly-deep voice sounded hoarse, but he was sharp discussing issues and unleashed at times his characteristically dry sense of humor.
Several attendees said they came to see Dole, who lives in Washington, D.C.
Dole, who plans to campaign with Roberts Tuesday, could bestow upon Roberts some of the bipartisan glow that the longtime Kansas leader sought to impart.
"I have a litany of things that Pat's done for Dodge City, but at my age I've forgot them all." Dole said.
Former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole speaks during Sen. Pat Roberts' campaign event on Monday in Dodge City. Roberts is campaigning for his fourth term as senator.

CORRECTION
In the Monday issue of The Kansan, Jean Schodorf was incorrectly identified as Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little in a caption above the headline, "Members of Chancellor's sexual assault panel address questions." The photo of Schodorf was incorrectly paired with the story.
