1. She just kicked ASS! "McCain cannot control his campaign and run it with honor & honesty"
She called them on their LIES!!!

I am so proud of her.

7. Same here...native Missourian, recently relocated to New York.
Still got to cast a vote for Claire in 2006, though. :hi:

4. I love her!
She was fantastic tonight! I'm glad she brought up the absurdity of McCain blaming the dirty campaign he's running on Obama refusing to campaign on McCain's terms.

6. Good campaigner for Obama. Mediocre Senator.

And I'm one Missourian whose disappointed in her.

If she has a challenger in the primary when she goes for re-elected, and they're an ounce electable, I'll support them.

8. I agree 100%, it would be nice if she had a primary challenger...

11. Telecom immunity was the one I was really pissed off about
I wasn't really happy with her willingness to vote for John Bolton for Representative of the United States of America to the United Nations, had he not decided against trying to actually get Senate approval.

She did well tonight, and on Sunday.

10. I voted for her
I have sent her many notes very critical of her votes in the Senate, and chastised her quite harshly in them.

I sent her one on praising her Sunday for her job on "This week." She may get another one like that tonight or tomorrow.
