Being Liberal and a Progressive in a RED STATE is not an easy thing these days. I started this blog to vent my frustrations on our lives being taken over by right wing conservatives with their propaganda machines. I have also learned an important lesson in the last year, it is that reading is the only way to get real information, you cannot depend on the news you see on TV.

Claire McCaskill Better Known Than Talent


I'd say that is a good sign, it appears Jim Talent's name is less known than Claire McCasskill here in Missouri.


From KC.com:

“It’s hard to believe someone who’s been elected statewide twice and on the statewide ballot three times also remains a bit unidentified.” –– Jennifer Duffy, Senate campaign analyst at the nonpartisan C ook Political Report

Building Sen. Jim Talent’s positive name ID is a fairly routine task, Duffy said. “But it’s an expensive fix.”

Talent would seem to be able to afford it. His $4.7 million was more than three times Claire McCaskill’s pile at year’s end.

So he may end up spending a chunk of cash in western Missouri, where he’s still a bit of a blank slate.

“For someone who’s a Republican and had no contact with the party, I cannot imagine that they would know very much about him,” said Sandy Kauffman, a former Republican state lawmaker.

“He does give the impression in isolated bits that he is not interested in doing much for the metropolitan Kansas City area,” Kauffman said.

If you live in MO give a little to the McCaskill campaign fund
