Good column today from Steve Rose on the rise and fall of Ben Hodge, the now former Johnson County Community College Trustee and Kansas state rep. Rose lays out a great case for why Hodge is now out of office -- alienating legislators (including conservatives) "with his obnoxious personality," running up legal bills, leaking a list of possible cuts to the public and pretty much being a prick.
