Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly wants Medicaid expansion.

Republican leadership in the Legislature wants a flat tax.

If you think there's room for some kind of grand bargain, forget about it.

Both sides appear dug in on their positions.

Kelly says she won't relent on a flat tax because she thinks it's unfair.

Republican leaders won't relent on Medicaid expansion because they think it's too costly and will help people who don't necessarily need the government assistance.

Both sides are barnstorming the state.
