Doubt anyone could have defeated Danforth in 1988. Moderate/middle of the road kinda guy. Still popular in MO. In fact he may have sunk Catherine Hannaways chance at Governor job due to her perceived aggressive campaign manner. He claimed such militancy may have lead to the Tom Schweich suicide.

Kit Bond likewise popular. Appealed to both sides as Danforth did.

Nixon is not well liked by NAACP folks. However, after all is said, Blacks will still vote for the Dem in overwhelming numbers. Ma can be defeated, but it will not be a push over. And never doubt for one minute the propensity of Republicans in Missouri to destroy one another.

Anyway, have not been able to find out if "extra" MO Highway Patrolman will be in Jeff City next month. Everyone seems tight-lipped about any planned "protests." Will be interesting to observe. From AFAR!!
