Just what is going on in Missouri? We know that Secretary of State Robin Carnahan is preparing for the upcoming August 3rd primaries. After all, as the state’s top elections official, Carnahan implemented Missouri’s first statewide voter registration system, created the Missouri Voting Rights Center, and launched an interactive election results website.

Who is Roy Blunt?

To be blunt, it is time for Roy’s tenure to be over. Robin Carnahan has been putting the needs of Missouri's families and children above all else.

What an honor! Rossi and Blunt named to "Crooked Candidates" list

By Hilary on 07/20/2010 @ 06:55 PM

Tags: Roy Blunt, GOP Opponents, US Senate, WA-Sen, MO-Sen

Our hearty congratulations to Roy Blunt and Dino Rossi on their latest accomplishment: making the nonpartisan Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington’s list of most unethical and corrupt candidates! It really takes a whole lot of scandal, dishonesty, and shadiness to make the list of just under a dozen out of 2,300 candidates – we hope Blunt and Rossi are truly proud of making it to the top.

We all love some ice cream on a hot summer's day. The only thing better? A great new site where you can get a taste of all of Cong. Roy Blunt's special interest flavors! How about a scoop of Pay-to-Praline with some Wall Street Walnut? You can make your very own "Corruption Cone" at this Missouri Democratic Party website.

Empowering women...by endorsing men?

So, I'm trying to be respectful here. I think people can disagree, and I think the great thing about our democracy is that there's a place in it for all of us – pick your goal and work your heart out on behalf of your candidates and voters will tell you if you've been effective or not. It's what energizes me every morning (in addition to several cups of Dunkin' Donuts' finest): knowing that our work every day brings more pro-choice Democratic women into office throughout the country.

Update: Blunt running from his own history

By Hilary on 07/08/2010 @ 03:25 PM

Tags: Robin Carnahan, Roy Blunt, GOP Opponents, 2010 Elections, MO-Sen

Robin Carnahan's opponent, Roy Blunt has all the credentials to be an establishment Republican candidate - he is the former GOP House Whip currently serving his seventh term in Congress. And while he has no problem taking the GOP money hand over fist at his fundraisers, he's trying to sell himself as something other than that as he campaigns statewide in Missouri.

Blunt running from his own history

Robin Carnahan's opponent, Roy Blunt, is a former GOP House Whip currently serving his seventh term in Congress. Working with the Republican establishment for that long, it's easy to see why men like Karl Rove and Newt Gingrich are fighting to help Blunt win this Senate race.

NPR's take on MO-Sen

Tags: Robin Carnahan, US Senate, 2010 Elections, GOP Opponents, MO-Sen

Ah, word choice. It really tells us everything, doesn't it? Take, for example, the words NPR selected to describe GOP MO-Sen candidate Congressman Roy Blunt: "Conservative Washington insider." "Well-funded." "Ample contributions...from Washington lobbyists."

FEC Filings: Republican woes not discouraging donors

While the national headlines would seem to suggest a leaderless GOP in disarray, some of the numbers I’ve seen this week show Republican donors pumped and primed to do what it takes to hold and gain key seats in 2010.
