What a shame that they let politics kill this race.

Absolutely...

All of my "please, please, please" emails to the dept. of tourism and the govt. office have now been changed to reflect different material.

Simply ridiculous in my opinion.

That is a shame. I have family in Missouri and was seriously considering coordinating a trip to see them with a day or two at the ToM along the way.

It's bad. Our governor forced a cost/benefit analysis of the ToM which showed at least a 40-1 ROI on the $1 million of state money. Unfortunatly, he's not fiscally concerned enough to require the same analysis of the $4 million allocated to the Juice Newton cover band, err the State Fair.

Very bummed he was being such a butthead about the ToM. Way to kill yet another US race.

I'd like to punch him the face, honestly... But I feel that way about most politicians.

How is it that the most bankrupt state can have a race this year and already be planning/budgeting for one next year but Missouri cannot?

lame

I think you answered your own question.

Nixon is a douche.
