The Democrats have nothing, so they are looking for anything.

“But this is a guy who’s never held an office higher than secretary of state in Missouri.”

Thanks for the Heads Up. 0bama was an ill-gotten Senator for 10 minutes who voted, ‘Present’ 99.999% of the time!

Jason Kander can’t win office in MO.

Democrats aren’t going to nominate him for higher office.

Plus - he’s a white male.
