I am shocked that the Missouri GOP thinks that Blunt can beat Robin Carnahan. We need someone stronger than Blunt.
I live in southwest Missouri and Sarah Steelman remains extremely popular here. Looking at the August 2008 GOP primary results, she won all of southwest Missouri, much of the Kansas City area, and parts of the northwest.
I really think Steelman should run for the Senate seat and NOT for Blunt's Congressional seat; that looks like it will be a very crowded field.
I think Steelman's got the ability to beat Carnahan. The Missouri GOP has to get out of their "anointed-one-la-la-land" and look at someone who can actually win!
I could go for a blunt right now.
Low volume ping list
FReepmail me to be on, or off, this list.
Personally, I think it's time for fresh blood all around in Congress.
Roy Blunt. Worst. Republican. Whip. Ever.
Isn’t Blunt a big RINO?
We need term limits badly
Steelman may be taking one for the party in the interest of avoiding a bitter primary fight. The GOP needs to avoid that in order to present the strongest possible front to Carnahan.
What is puzzling is Conyers supported Specter before he bolted, supported Crist without considering Rubio, but has only given a statement that he is "pleased" that Blunt is running. I don't know if that is a good thing a moron like Conyers hasn't supported Blunt or a bad thing that Blunt can't make the same cut as Specter and Crist.
Roy Blunt is part of the problem. He needs to go.
Lets see. The race will be Nixon & Carnahan vs Bush & Blunt. Currently, the people of the Show Me State aren’t in love with Matt BLunt and GW Bush.
Shame, Steeleman ditched the run fo Senate in favor of Blunt’s house seat.
You know for a fact Steelman can actually win? I'm in S.E. Mo. and know nothing about her capabilities.
I had a call from the Blunt campaign and that guy and I had some disagreements. He wanted money now, but I told him I wasn't going to support Blunt until Blunt convinced me he was something other than a moderate democrap.
Unfortunately, Sarah fronted for the trial lawyers all the while she served in the MO Senate. She had many conservative tendencies but her unwillingness to divorce herself from this group of reprehensible thieves and scoundrels just will not wash with most conservatives.
STAMP OUT POLITICAL NEPOTISM! BRAND NAME POLITICAL FAMILYS ARE LIKE A MONARCHY.
We need NEW blood and not family lineage of politics.
I supported Steelman for Governor. I saw how the GOP turned against her in favor of Hulsoff. The GOP isn’t the selectors here. The people are. Let them see if WE can pick a winner for a change instead of the losers the GOP money banks on.
