I live in KC... when I say demoncrat led, all the big cities are demoncrat, and with a democrat Gov, it is my humble opinion and for all practical purposes, demoncrats are in control... You’ll notice that while Peter Kinder, Lt Gov, has voiced great concern over Mo Gov’s handling of Ferguson, he has no real power, IOS...
Is there some state that gives power to the Lt. Governor?
Nixon does have the power over lots of things, but so does the majority Republican Legislature, so I wouldn’t say he rules everything.
He certainly was the only one that could order in the Guard, and he usurped the authority of the duly elected officials in Ferguson - so he owns this disaster no doubt about it.
And to think he actually had Presidential Aspirations - LOL not after this EPIC FAIL that’s for sure.
