Rex Sinquefield had a thing or two to say about Governor Jay Nixon at a Heritage Foundation event (starting at around the forty-six minute mark – via @ssnich):

Rex Sinquefield: ….You know, Kansas has three great things going for it. First of all, it has a great governor. We all agree with that, right? [applause] Secondly, it’s got a great tax policy. And thirdly, and most important, Missouri has an idiot for a governor. [laughter] Am I allowed to say that in public [laughter]?

[….]

So much for respectful discourse when it comes to public policy.

Not that we’ve ever been accused of subscribing to that philosophy.
