"The more attention that Obama personally pays to this state, the greater the odds that McCain wins the state," Blunt predicted this week. "The more Obama the better and the sooner the better."
Blunt said he's convinced Missourians will make Republican Sen. John McCain the country's 44th president in November after they start to realize that Obama carries a "hollow message" of peace, hope and prosperity.

Blunt: Obama should campaign all over Missouri
Seventh District Congressman Roy Blunt is urging Barack Obama to campaign in southwest Missouri and all over the state, hoping that familiarity will breed contempt:
Obama's health plan:“My plan begins by covering every American. If you already have health insurance, the only thing that will change for you under this plan is the amount of money you will spend on premiums. That will be less. If you are one of the 45 million Americans who don't have health insurance, you will have it after this plan becomes law. No one will be turned away because of a preexisting condition or illness.”
