I'll keep this short. Democrat Laura Kelly is really hoping silence will keep her problems at bay.

Kelly's remaining silent after allegations surfaced her state party's Executive Director faces repeated accusations of creating a "toxic work environment," according to a report today in the Kansas City Star. The report comes after Kelly's campaign declined to comment on an ongoing ethics complaint for her misuse of taxpayer resources to aid her political campaign.

"From ethics complaints for misusing taxpayer resources for her campaign to the 'toxic work environment' at the Kansas Democrat Party, Laura Kelly apparently doesn't want to answer for much these days," said RGA spokesperson Joanna Rodriguez. "Kelly's problems aren't going away because she ignores them, and the reasons for Kansans to send her packing continue to pile up."
