The domestic violence in Shepards past is both shocking and repulsive in detail. On February 15, 1998, police were called to then-Mrs. Shepards house (the couple had been separated since June of the previous year) by a girlfriend. According to the police report (.pdf file), Mrs. Shepard said of her husband:

Joseph entered my home. I told him to leave. He came up to me looking angry. I put my hands up to protect my breasts as they are sore (cancer). He has hit me before in the breast. He grabbed my wrist and arm and pushed me up against the wall & I hit my head & back & he bruised my arms by pinching me.

Liberals are obviously hoping that “wingnuts” will beat up on her for being a battered spouse, and they will sing “oh, blame the victim, blame the victim” if they do.
The substantive scandal about her is not that; it’s her collusion with these bully boy husbands in political corruption.

Would you please consider moving this thread to front page? Very relevant and I’ve not seen it discussed elsewhere.

According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Shepards business history reveals a man who has made his fortune off of taxpayer dollars, by aggressively [seeking] public subsidies and reaping spectacular financial reward from rural, low-income housing.Oh yeh -- oh yeh -- but McCaskill is so downset against those bad earmarks.

As an amusing aside...David Esposito (Clair's first hubby) supposedly dropped a lit joint from second floor casino onto a KCPD narc. This is never a good thing and led to his immediate arrest.
A not so amusing aside is his murder. Shot in a vehicle and tossed out in front of a day care. Not long after Claire announced her Senate run (Dec. 2005). Esposito had become a liability and so perhaps he got "Arkancided?" Shades of Billary...

The media squelched this thing from day one. Perhaps the powers to be recognized the threat Esposito’s “past” posed to the Dems capturing the Senate seat and took care of the “problem” without Claire’s knowledge?

Certainly related. Lots of controversy swirling around McCaskill but everyone prefers to harp on Akin’s gaffe.
What gets me is Claire stated that her husband, Joseph Shepherd taught her values.
Uncle Chip...another thing that concerns me is the RCP has Akin up by 5 points:(
