We don’t need a primary fight.
I have no idea whether R. Carnahan is tied to Missouri, but she will be an outstanding candidate to take the Bond seat.
RBH said:
the media is bored and there’s not much to make of this.
People are making speculation up about at least four different races now.
Right now, I don’t believe there is a whole lot there. Nixon’s the one and that’s how it’ll end up.

Inquiring minds want to know – WHO are the ‘people’ who have called her ‘urging’ her to run? WHATTHE@##@#???? Can you say ‘mccaskill/holden’?? (I know – it was worse, he was a sitting governor, but still).
Nixon has been running for 3 years. She’s just NOW thinking ‘omygod’ maybe I should run? Stop. Keep your SOS seat.
We DO NOT need a primary. Let the Repubs provide the entertainment – not the dems.
ROBIN – DO NOT RUN. Whoever is calling her – STOP
