WASHINGTON–Demonstrating Missouri’s importance in the wave of presidential voting on Tsunami Tuesday, both Clintons will be back in Missouri before Feb. 5th.
Ex-Prez Bill Clinton plans to be in Columbia and Springfield on Saturday, and Hillary Clinton will be in St. Louis on Sunday. No other details were available but we’ll fill you in as we hear more.

Loading ...Hillary is not electable in a state such as Missouri or Ohio. She’ll even have her hands full in places such as Wisconsin, Iowa and Washington.
The South? Write it off.
The only chance that the Republicans have is Hillary winning the Democratic nomination.
The good news is: most Democrats are realizing that she can’t win in November.
Dont ever count the Clinton’s out. they know how to run a shrewd campaign. I would argue that they are the only ones that can beat the replublicans. After the glitz of current media darling Obama is over, they will tear him to shreds.
Hillary can and will win!
Nominating HRC as the dem candidate is the embodiment of the expression “snatching defeat from the arms of victory”. Bush’s failed policies and his flaunting of the rule of law could make this election a trivial win for the Dems.
But trying to put HRC in office will virtually ensure defeat, and it isn’t just because the Repubs will show up in droves to defeat her. It’s because many Dems might give up on the party.
I’m a lifelong Dem (30+ years of voting), but I can not bring myself to vote for HRC. In the last 7 years, I watched her praise Bush, the worst president in US history, vote for his destructive policies, and vote (and angrily defend her vote) for his war of aggression. I watched HRC and Joe-mentum (Lieberman) be zombie springbutts at Bush State of the Union talks.
And before her Senate years, she was instrumental in the DLC and the centrist Dem policies that silenced the progressive and populist movements. She has done a great deal to corporatize the Dem party and fashion it as a lite version of the Repub party.
I’m very sad that the last populist voices in the Dem campaign (Edwards and Kucinich) are gone. Like many of their supporters, I’ll either stay away from the polls or vote for an independent candidate, rather than cast a vote for HRC.
I’ll do that knowing it might mean a win for a Repub and the continued descent of the US into war and economic collapse.
I’ll do it with the hope that I and those I love will survive the catastrophic years to come.
I’ll do it with the slightly less vague hope that the Dem party of today will be replaced by a more progressive party that has pushed back the destructive influence of corporate greed and a mainstream media gone amok.
If the Democrats wish give the Presidency to the GOP in 2009, let them nominate and run Hillary in 2008. I truly believe that she in unelectable in any red state, the Republicans will come out in droves to vote against her.
