Source: ozarksfirst.com

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R- TX) joins Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO) in the Ozarks today for several "get out the vote" rallies with the Republican ticket.

Blunt and Cruz will help rally voters and discuss the importance of this election 5 pm Wednesday evening at National Safety Compliance, Inc., 424 North Cedarbrook Avenue in Springfield. Doors to the public open at 4:30 p.m.

The Senators will then follow the Republican candidates over to the Connor Ballroom at Missouri Southern State University in Joplin for another rally, starting at 7:30 p.m.

Missouri Democrats plan a protest outside the event in Springfield, according to a news release sent to journalists Tuesday.

hasn't really helped them Daddy Blunt much, polls indicate some people will vote for Dumpf and then Kander, can't they come with some new ads at least?

Of course, I don't think he truly lives here any more, not even sure if he lives in Missouri at all any more. That's the point Jason Kander just made in a TV advert while I was typing this.

Cruz, that looks like a cartoon of Tailgunner Joe?

Or Blunt, who looks like a clown balloon on a bad suit?

And Oh Dog, have you seen the Ashcroft guy? I've no words...

I suspect the outcome would be Ted possessed by demons and needing an exorcism.

Of course that is probably the case anyway.

I despise that man.
