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.

Sounds like the GOP thinks they can win by eliminating choices and then counting on that conservatives will show up and vote for Blunt because Obama will have screwed things up so badly we will vote for Satan as long as he has an R after his name.

This is very very RISKY on the Missouri GOP establishment's part. Mr. Blunt will have to earn my vote, not get it by default.

Carnahan will be able to paint Blunt as the worst Washington insider, backroom dealing, Bush sycophant.

Steelman/Carnahan Woman vs woman, both outside of the Washington stench.

Go Sarah!
