Would history be defied twice

[Racenut20]

Electoral-Vote.com shows Kerry winning Ohio and Bush winning Missouri. But a winning Republican always wins Ohio, and Missouri votes with the winner (except 1956).

So Kerry winning without without Missouri ????

Bush winning without Ohio ????

Me thinks this polling 'haint gonna hold up.

1. It's possible

I think Kerry has a good chance of taking both OH and FL (barring any fraud which is doubtful) but losing MO. At the same time there is the possibility of losing one or more of the following which Gore barely won: OR, WI, and IA.

I don't think MO is the bellwhether it once was. It has been trending rightward, though I do think Edwards will help Kerry's chances in that state as well as possibly in NC, AR, and WV. At the minimum it will force them to spend mre $ in those states and helps our chances in keeping those three states mentioned above in the dem column.

2. Edwards in Missouri

He drew a pretty big enthusiastic crowd when he was in Springfield on the SMS campus I think. That is RightWing capital in Mo, and Assbutts home town, as well as the home of the ruling Council of the Church of God (Falwell,Robertson,Foreman,Swaggert, and the "Boys of Sunday")

Clinton and Edwards can effect the votes in this State. They have lots of reasons to go there (the surrogates) to support Nancy Farmer against Kit Bond. Some have already gone there to raise money for her.

St. Louis was the first place Clinton went after the 92 convention, if I remember correctly. And he was pretty awsome standing in front of Harry Truman's statue in Independence.
