A write-up on Bush and Bell, apparently from a Democrat.

It is a little surprising that Bell's ads never mentioned his unseating the DA that declined to prosecute in the Michael Brown case. Maybe that would have reminded voters that Bell ended up agreeing with the former DA's decision.   ;)

Let's not lose sight of the fact that Bell is very, VERY left leaning.

He's just not "LET'S FINISH WHAT HITLER STARTED AND KILL THE REST OF THE JEWS!" left leaning.

Cori was basically one of the "Let's get elected and see what we can grab" St. Louis politicians... Bell is somewhat middle of the road, and somewhat batshit crazy left at the same time...

Bat guano crazy left is now standard-issue for Democratic politicians.


One thing that surprised me a little bit is how much their ads (negative or positive) centered around supporting Biden. I think that dropped off a bit after the debatcle (debate/debacle - see what I did there?), but not by much. Their ads were also hyper-focused on abortion (which is now basically illegal in Missouri).

The attack ads against Bush also accused her of being a non-entity as far as any accomplishments while in office.

The left and the media call them moderates.

That is also an open primary. I hope enough people cross over the line and help vote her gone. That would be the best way to do it.
