Fantastic idea. Harris vs. Gibbons!

Honors, or insults?

for god’s sake, it’s Poplar Bluff, not Popular.
how hard can it be to get that right???
we had the freaking President of the United States come to town.
one would think that the leading St Louis newspaper could spell it correctly

CJB - chill. Just because you guys mispelled “popular” don’t blame Jake for trying to spell it correctly. By the way, we usually capitalize “God.”

Thanks for the catch — I know “Popular Bluff” is a popular mistake — must be one of those words spell check changes automatically …

Cheers.

Poplar is a tree Jake, spell check wouldn’t change it automatically, but you get credit for a creative response. Anybody that spell Girardeau correctly and uses STE. in Ste Genevieve gets a pass from me for calling it Popular Bluff.

I assume Harris is doing this tour so he can explain why he missed so many votes in the past year.

Koster’s new ad was quit surprising to me. Harris has missed 1 out of every 3 votes in the past year. Not very impressive. Put that on top of the fact that when he was in the AG’s office, he quit after less then 8 months.

Kinda shows a total lack of dedication or commitment in everything he has done.

If Jeff wins would he quit after 8 months or just show up one or two days a week?

I am voting for Koster

I think its nice to see a candidate who is actually going out to meet with constituents. We don’t see that much nowadays. Unfortunately, Koster seems to continually have “scheduling conflicts” that prevent him from talking with people. It’s too bad he’s afraid to actually speak in public. Of course, if I could only get 3 people to attend my events (Koster’s event in Cape), I would probable be afraid to schedule more events too.

Koster Supporter, if you want to look at voting records, lets look at voting records. Harris worked extremely hard during the past session. He sponsored 17 bills to Koster’s 9. And its not like Harris’ bills were minor bills. He sponsored bills dealing with the subprime mortgage crisis, expanding the no call list, preventing utility rate increases, cleaning up the campaign finance mess, protecting the enviroment, ensuring open government, protecting kids from sexual predators, stopping kids from smoking, protecting disabled persons, stopping unwanted e-mails, and shaken babies. These are serious issues that were addressed by a serious legislator and a serious candidate. What did Koster do?

Koster’s camp can make a big deal about the votes Harris missed. Most, if not all, of the votes Harris missed were meaningless. Unfortunately, many of Koster’s votes were very important, but in a negative sense. Let’s see how he voted. Koster voted for the health care cuts, MOHELA sale, and voter ID. Personally, I with he hadn’t shown up for those votes. The state would have been better off if he hadn’t been there.

What a joke. This little man is being paid by the people of Missouri and he skips work and his supporters say the “votes he missed were the unimportant ones”. Laugh out loud..

Harris is asked to work half a year and that is a burdend on him. This guy is a complete slacker.

If anyone in the private sector skipped 33% of their job they would be fired in a heart beat. IN A HEART BEAT!!!!

Koster for Attorney General!

Jeff Harris may have FILED a lot of bills, but filing bills doesn’t mean anything unless you can get some of them passed. Anybody can file 17 bills. For that matter, anybody can file 50 or 100 bills - the staff does that work anyway.

What has Jeff Harris actually accomplished in the Minority Floor Leader’s office?

I think most Harris supporters were choosing Harris just because they couldn’t think of any bad reason not to vote for him, not because of any stellar accomplishments or experience. Maybe they’ll be thinking a little differently on Tuesday, now that they have the facts of his voting record this year.

Funny thing - Koster doesn’t have to make up stuff about Harris - it’s completely factual information, all sitting there for the public to confirm any time they want to.
