Reply #12: doesn't have the support he "should have"?

Why should he have that support?

I know there is a lot of resentment against him in the cities on the busing/desegregation in schools issue.

Here's another example of why I won't be voting for him (sorry, no link, as it's from an expired story on stltoday.com):

"Nixon asserted that the Democratic Party needs more candidates, nationally and in the state, who reflect mainstream America. For example, he said he was Missouri's only Democratic statewide candidate to embrace the state constitutional amendment defining marriage as only between a man and woman."

This does not make me willing to vote for him. We can do better.
