1. MO is in play with a big GOTV

I'll be watching it... Kerry by +3 or so nationally changes the map on election night. This could be one.

4. Winning MO would make Wisconsin irrelevant

Any campaign visits by either side schedule in MO?

2. Schilling pissed 'em off good...

Look for them to go Dem.

3. It's going to be a very blue November. REMEMBER TURNOUT !!!!

5. As a Missourian, I would say it would take massive turnout

in St. Louis city and Kansas City.

In St. Louis (both city and county), there is also a large Catholic population. It'll be interesting to see how it splits, especially with our controversial "Vote for Kerry and go to hell" policy.

7. As a rural Missourian I think that you may be surprised at the

results from Southwest Missouri. We will beat Gore's vote in 2000 by

a wide margin. I have never seen the base so motivated and working

like this. If K.C. and St. Louis come through Missouri will be blue

next Tuesday. GOTV.

9. That's good news. I'm not in rural MO much,

just pass through taking I-70 to KC during the summer for a Cards/Royals game.

6. I'm shocked the Springfield paper endorsed Kerry!

I know nothing about that newspaper, but Springfield is the heart of Repuke Missouri, I mean "Missour-ah."

10. The letters to the editor in the Joplin Globe have been running

2 to one in favor of Kerry. I was in Springfield today and saw lots

of Kerry signs. I also saw more Newberry for congress than roy blunt

signs.

8. Watch where the candidates go and where the money is going

The DNC bought $250,000 in ads for Ark and Bill Clinton is campaigning there, so Ark is certainly back on. If Edwards or Kerry suddenly add a stop in Missouri, then yes, I would say they feel that Mo. is still winnable.

12. Edwards was here about three weeks ago.

I think that's the last time either of them were here.

11. My daughter's middle school class voted 46% Kerry today.

Kerry lost but we live in a very solid Republican County. This was a shock to those at the school.

He can do that well in Franklin County anything is possible.
