Get ready for Missouri’s biggest pot luck in history
Proving that even fierce rivals can work together, Gov. Matt Blunt today signed an executive order that will ease the way for Gov.-elect Jay Nixon’s inauguration.
Blunt’s order will close all state offices in Cole County on Monday, Jan. 12, the day Nixon officially becomes governor and Blunt goes back to being a private citizen.
Nixon, obviously learning from the inaugural of Gov. Bob Holden — which needed about $1 million in private donations to be paid off — has suggested the inaugural will be the biggest pot luck in Missouri history.
Probably a bit of an exaggeration, but I hope somebody brings deviled eggs!


I don’t know that a potluck for an inauguration is a good idea or that it will be allowed. just seems like there are too many things that could go wrong.
