Unofficial kick-off thread

Hello from the great southwest of the Show-Me State!

and west central, yet close enough to Truman to make an easy drive.

In other words, I have to listen to multiple weather reports from different areas to cobble together a prediction for the day.

If you ever doubted that MO is *not* a red state, but truly purple, just come spend a little time with me in the "bluest city in Texas".

KC, Columbia, and St. Louis are solidly blue and a few of the college towns (including where I live) can flip on occasion. It's more Springfield and the bootheel that are deep red.

FWIW-everyone here has dismissed us as going red in the next election. Personally, I think it'll be more purple, yet again. It's going to be a close race, as long as the GOP offers no other candidates. And if the Dems find a decent candidate for the Fourth it'll go dark blue for that candidate-everyone hates Hartzler around here!

KC area

The border is practically Missouri anyway, except you have to deal with Brownback.

In a solidly blue section of the city, happily surrounded by Democrats and Democratic activists (which is why I moved there).

I'm about an hour east of you.

There are a few KC DUers here. Unfortunately, few of them post in the Missouri group.

A plague of Teabaging protesters in this area. I guess they see this place as their last stand at the Alamo?

There are a LOT of people in line.

How do you post pics?

and then link to them. I haven't posted pics in years on here but that's how it used to be. If nothing else you can go to the Help forum and ask for further.

I'd love to see a thread here with your pics!

actually rural, near Camdenton.

Pretty red here...religious leaders apparently don't have to abide by rules to keep their
tax-free status. "Cause all the Xtians here know that PBO is a muslim. The preacher told them.

Voting this afternoon. Always all 'D'. Always.

I'm old but I'm not stupid.

Saw a T-shirt like that yesterday.

Lol

GOTV tomorrow Dems!!!

Hope my city flips blue soon.
