Kansans predict party growth
by Barbara Kollmeyer
Kansan staff writer
A battle of ethics has been raging on Capitol Hill.
The battle has produced two Democratic casualties, Speaker of the House Jim Wright and Democratic Majority Whip Tony Coelho. According to two Kansas Democrats, however, the victors may be the Democrats themselves, gaining a stronger leadership team on Capitol Hill.
Both U.S. Rep. Jim Slattery and Dan Glickman, Kansas Democrats, agreed that the shakup in the House proved to be positive for their party
"The party will go through a short period of struggle and confusion, but six months from now it will come out and people will leave." Slattery from his Washington office.
Majority Leader Tom Foley of Washington, who is popular among Republicans and Democrats, is expected to replace Wright. Rep. Richard Gephardt of Missouri is the candidate favored to take Foley's place as Democratic Majority Leader.
According to Glickman, the new House leadership will strengthen the Democratic Party as a whole because Foley and Gephardt are well known such as education trade, science programs, agriculture and trade.
"These kinds of issues will help nationally because they will be appealing to Kansas Republicans and from Wisconsin," Dickman从 his Washington office.
Both Glickman and Slattery are friends with Gonhardt and Foley and
hope that their influence can be felt more through the election of these individuals.
Slattery said both Foley and Gephardt had the experience and background that would prove beneficial to Kansas.
"Dick Gephardt is a neighbor from Missouri who is going to bring in a Midwestern perspective to lead," Slatter said.
"Tom Foley knows more about farm and rural programs than any other speaker in history," he said, referring to his former role on the wheat and grain subcommittee.
"It will be helpful for Kansas to have someone in the House that knows so much about legislative matters that affect Kansas," added
