Steeleman is in love with filling the roll of Tea Party maverick. She doesn’t seem to recognize that Republicans have been soundly conservative for sometime and respect for others is important.

I like her fairly well but she turned off my wife as ungenuine.

Any of the three would be more conservative then prior Republicans, Talent and Bond. Only time will tell if Blunt goes establishment. He talks the talk but is self promoting and may not walk the walk.

I think we will have trouble getting rid of Democrat Governor Nixon. He has worked conservatively with the Republican legislature and is hard working and dilegent. The Republicans running against him are lackluster.

I can read you from a mile away, you do not like Sarah Palin so you are voting against the other Sarah.

Good post. I agree. The "Hey, I'm a Tea Party maverick!" shtick wears a bit thin.

And Brunner, in turn, turned me off with his negative TV ads, linking Steelman visually with McCaskill and Obama.

So I voted for my steady, solid, conservative congresssman, Todd Akin.

Again, I agree. Missouri will go Repuplican for President and Senate this fall, but the one Democrat who is likely to survive is Nixon. For a Democrat, he's relatively "centrist."
