Smith explains his “No” to Colbert, pro-Emerson blog goes up, judges hit the beach
Friday morning is busy today on the Web. Here’s some interesting offerings:
– State Sen. Jeff Smith, D-St. Louis, has sent out a detailed account of why he felt he had to back off his slated appearance on the Stephen Colbert show, as Political Fix reported a week or so ago. Here’s the link.
– Republicans supporting U.S. Rep. Jo Ann Emerson, R-Cape Girardeau, have set up a Web blog to encourage her to run for governor, now that Gov. Matt Blunt is bowing out. Have a look.
– Gadflies are circulating the link to a new Federalist Society web site that monitors all those Democratic-appointed Missouri judges that the group would like to see replaced. The new site takes on the Missouri Bar. The featured Web photos zero in on the Bar’s mid-year meeting in the Bahamas, which was attended by some state Supreme Court judges. (No names since we have not confirmed what we’ve been told.)
– And Democrats are talking about reports that May Scheve Reardon, a former state legislator from South County and the former chairwoman of the Missouri Democratic Party (during Bob Holden’s tenure as governor) may be considering a return to politics. The word is that she may be looking at state treasurer, if Republican incumbent Sarah Steelman opts to go for governor.
