Montee offers response to McCain’s high-dollar event
State Auditor Susan Montee will be downtown this morning, offering a Democratic response to today’s visit by GOP presidential nominee John McCain.
McCain will stop by the St. Louis County estate of Stephen Brauer, former ambassador to Belgium, for a pricey fundraiser where supporters have been asked to raise or contribute as much as $57,000 a couple.
Montee, an early supporter of McCain’s Democratic rival Barack Obama, will be at the Old Courthouse at 11 a.m., contrasting the high-dollar event with austere news from the state’s economic climate: the decision of Bombardier Aerospace not to build in Missouri, the closing of Chrysler operations in Fenton and, of course, the foreign takeover of brewer Anheuser-Busch .


Now who is she again????
The Bombardier decision was made long ago. The only question was how long they would lead us on.
I wish I could claim credit for it but I heard someone else say, “An Obama presidency will be the second term of Jimmy Carter. He will take a bad economy and make it worse.” Carter meant well too.
Lord help us.
