Now this does not surprise me. I go to St. Louis a lot for buisness and there seems to be a lot of non working freeloaders hanging out. Would probably be a good place to redistribute some wealth.

That only shows one direction, too. This is the biggest rally turnout he's had in the US so far...and in a state that usually goes red, too. (Unless I'm mistaken on that it goes red)

I would not be putting Missouri in the Obama bag just yet.

BTW, I am not saying all of Missouri is racist. Just saying there are quite a few diehards over there.

To those from both sides of the spectrum, yes, I think that (unfortunately), there are still people whose thinking processes are affected by race, and whites do not have a monopoly in that regard.
The core color in this election is green and the lack of it flowing the way of the middle class as a result of eight years of Bush/McCain.

Btw, MO is surely going blue this time around.

Wow, what's the catch? Free Mad Dog, corn dogs and live music again?
