Bill Haas Democrat running for 2nd District US House seat has been touring the 3 counties of his territory since March, maybe April, as have been 3 of the other 4 candidates. We skipped the press conferences so far. We’re like brothers. Once of us probably will win. We all want to. But we agree that the main goal is to beat Akin in the general. We should all work together to do that. We’ll see. I even treated the other candidates to “Anyone But Akin” bumper stickers out of my own pocket ($300) as reported on PubDef twitter. Someone else can pay for next batch. West County Dems? 20,000 of them if they catch on, someone’s bound to notice. Thought of it myself.

It seems that, for years, the voters have been suggesting “anyone but Haas” at the polls.

I suppose you’ll be another “Boots” Weber, though.

Billy boy, you are a legend in your own mind!
