Billy Long has a 33 Point Lead Over Scott Eckersely: Game Over Man, Game Over



Oh, you need a good shower to clean yourself when you get too close to American politics. The race for the new Congressman in the 7th District is done. Game over man, game over. The Eckersley campaign should relax this weekend, take it easy and hand out candy from their Park Central Square office building. Billy Long has bought him a seat to Congress using a negative character assassination game in the primary, after promising Dr. Scott Magill and the Missouri Republican assembly he would run a clean campaign in the primary, and he will soon be sworn in as the Congressman to replace Roy Blunt.

According to a poll conducted by Missouri State University, it appears there is going to be a post-Halloween slaughter on election night. The gap in the poll is 33 points, and this even with many conservative voters holding their nose over the republican candidate.

In two months or so, the next Congressional race begins. An unpopular Billy Long within the Republican ranks who smeared the characters of Jack Goodman and Gary Nodler will soon learn who will challenge him in two years. It's coming fast--just when you thought it was time to relax. Could it be former governor Matt Blunt that steps up to challenge Long? He could raise the money and pull Long's campaign infrastructure from underneath him. Could it be David Cole, the former chairman of the Missouri Republican 7th Congressional District? Those are two names that could term limit Billy Long to two years.

In the coming months, real Constitutional conservatives are going to have to work to help fund raise and get the word out to defeat two Republicans in 2012. Sarah Steelman showed her true colors with her funny endorsement of the less than conservative Long, who will be puppet of multiple puppeteers from John Boehner to his Kansas City handlers to Gordon Kinne to Sarah Steelman herself. Constitutional conservatives have a fight ahead of them for the next two years to defeat Billy Long in the primary and ensure Sarah Steelman isn't the candidate to face Claire McCaskill in 2012.
