It's not Jim Kreider or Doug Harpool or any of the big names Democrats have been urging to jump into the Seventh District Congressional race, but the Democrats have finally fielded a challenger to incumbent Roy Blunt.
Ron Lapham, Bolivar, filed this afternoon for his fourth try to unseat Blunt. He has not been a major factor in any of the previous three, the last two as a Democrat and the first as a member of the Freedom Party.
Lapham, 63, was a naval combat photographer in Vietnam and a general contractor in California before moving to southwest Missouri.
Lapham is the second person to file as a Democrat, following in the footsteps of white supremacist Frazier Glenn Miller, who filed first as a Democrat, then as a Republican, then as a Libertarian, and found no one would accept his filing fee.

Finally somebody to for instead of Blunt. Now if we can just find someone to run against Nodler, Ruestman and Wilson.
Redone: Finally somebody to vote for instead of Blunt. Guess it pays to edit these comments before posting.
