Nixon (D) wants the expansion-it's our buddies at Jeff City who hate it. Remember, these are the same people who wanted to revoke child labor laws and gave Rush Limbaugh a bust.

Our governor, who looks to make a bigger impact nationally in the next few years, isn't our problem. It's the idiots in the 'burbs and the really rural folks who keep voting for nasty, hateful representation in Jeff City.
