Linked BloggersRepublicans: Are you worried about HD 91?Posted May 14th, 2008 by Show Me ProgressOur house sits on a three acre tract, and if I could leave 2 1/2 acres of it behind and transport the building from Ferguson to Webster Groves, it would be worth almost twice as much money.

Half-Way Through Primary Campaign, Hulshof Web-Site Still Under ConstructionPosted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up Missouri
Over half-way through his primary campaign, Hulshof has yet to field a fully functioning web page. His site includes the reassuring tag, "full website coming soon." As is the election. Sarah Steelman's Up TooPosted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up MissouriAt least Sarah doesn't leave out an entire decade of her life. StallPosted May 14th, 2008 by The SourceThe Democratic Party is learning and perfecting a new tactic: Stall. An example is Secretary of State Robin Carnahan’s ability to kill a citizen requested ballot initiative by simply taking it to court one more time. Similarly, the party of Truman has decided to keep “passing the buck” on vote after vote. Donnelly Joins Harris in Mobilizing Her Campaign Against Voter ID BillPosted May 14th, 2008 by Show Me ProgressYesterday I mentioned that Jeff Harris was using his campaign website to promote efforts against the Voter ID bill. Now Margaret Donnelly gets in on the action. There's nothing on her website at the moment, but she did send an e-mail to her list (full text below the fold) asking supporters to contact their state senator and ask them to oppose the bill. I like the language in it - she calls this a... Wash U's Chancellor Wrighton Confirms It. Schlafly Will Be Honored at CommencementPosted May 14th, 2008 by Show Me ProgressChancellor Wrighton just sent out an e-mail to everyone at Washington University to confirm that the university will confer an honorary doctorate to Phyllis Schlafly at the commencement ceremony on Friday. The only "concession" he made was to state that trustee Margaret Bush Wilson will read Schlafly's citation. As "the first woman of color to serve as the national chair of the NAACP" and "the... What's the Frequency, Kenneth?Posted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up Missouri
Kenny Hulshof is up with a TV ad in Springfield according to the KC Star. Although I certainly understand Kenneth's need to put up an ad quickly to try to deal with his terrible poll numbers and lack of name recognition. I was perplexed by the content of the ad. Hushlof drives down a dirt road in a truck and almost hits a dog. He walks through a field and invokes faith and hard work. Says he was taught the difference between right and wrong and knows that "both Missouri and her land are blessed by God." He says "the basic moral strength of our people" is the foundation of our future. The ad ends by saying that Kenneth is the conservative for Governor. So what is he trying to say exactly? While Kenny Napped: Treason in the House; Cowardice in the SenatePosted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up Missouri
Missing in action was Kenny "Fred Thompson" Hulshof. According to GOP sources, Kenny was taking his daily nap during the GOP-on-GOP crime spree. I don't want him, you can have him, he's too bad for mePosted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up Missouri
But despite a concerted effort to be the anti-Nixon, Blunt has been heretofore silent about the specifics of his support in the Republican gubernatorial primary. One can only imagine that, at some point before August, the sitting governor will roll around to announcing his support for one candidate or the other in the race to succeed him. The big question about that, of course, is whether his is support anyone wants. Barnes Responds To Graves Attack AdPosted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up MissouriHere's the ad the Barnes campaign just went up with in response to the attack ad Graves launched late last week. Keep in mind, Sam Graves is starting his campaign with a negative attack on Barnes. That tells you an awful lot about him. Special Interest Sam knows he can't run on his Washington record.

I wonder if lobbyist MO GOP Thinks Economy In Southeast Missouri Is Just FinePosted May 14th, 2008 by Fired Up Missouri
A spokesperson for the Missouri GOP was trying to spin that everything was just fine in Southeast Missouri and send around this pic as proof. Unsurprisingly, KC Star reporter Dave Helling picked right up on the GOP spin and quickly put up this smarty pants post trying to suggest that the Obama campaign was foolish to be appearing in Southeast Missouri because unemployment is "so low" in Cape Girardeau County.  |

Kenny "Fred Thompson" Hulshof just can't get it going.
Tough day for GOP unity in Jefferson City
Judging by what he's been doing since announcing in January that he wouldn't seek a second term, Matt Blunt believes it is his role to be a guy with a big megaphone who can use his ample official resources to benefit GOP candidates by regularly attacking Democrats. Yesterday's
