Sen Papa Blunt of Missouri, prodding Dem challenger Kander with staffer in kU Jayhawk mascot costume
http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2016/jul/26/mo-sen-blunt-prodding-challenger-kander-jayhawk-ma/"JEFFERSON CITY, MO. — Republican U.S. Sen. Roy Blunt is using a Kansas Jayhawk to take a political swipe at Democratic challenger Jason Kander.
When Kander made a campaign stop Tuesday in Jefferson City, Mo., the applauding audience included someone dressed like a Kansas Jayhawk mascot. A Blunt spokesman said later that it was a campaign volunteer.
Blunt's campaign is trying to make an issue of Kander's assertion that he is a fifth-generation Missourian.
Kander was born and attended high school in Kansas. But he has made Missouri his home since graduating from Georgetown University law school in 2005."
Kander is not on record of being a kU fan unlike Kaine

as would be expected from the GOP. No need to discuss issues and what might be important to the citizens of the State of Missouri, just show up to the opponents event in costume and make an horse's backside of oneself.
