Voted for The Messiah, didn’t they? Just call for divine intervention.

Actually, Missouri is one of a handful of states that voted for McCain.

Missouri voted for McCain by a slim margin.

[Prov3456]

Missouri went for McCain. It's the first time in 100 (or more) years that this state voted for the candidate who did NOT win the presidency.

On election day, I was thrilled that Missouri went for "the loser." I suspect many people were disappointed - but as time passes, I predict more and more citizens will agree with me. We will be able to brag that "we got it right for over 100 years: even when we voted for the loser, we turned out to be right."

At least that's my hope!
