TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! SHOW-ME TALK OF YET ANOTHER MISSOURI AG CHRIS KOSTER DOUBLE CROSS!!!



A very SPECIAL THANKS TO AN AWESOME TKC TIPSTER for this note that hints at another SHAMEFUL MISSOURI SWITCHEROO in the works as the silly season kicks into high gear.

To wit . . .

KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS TELL US THAT MISSOURI AG CHRIS KOSTER IS GETTING PANICKED AND PLAYING NICE WITH THE GOP AGAIN BECAUSE SEN. CLAIRE McCASKILL IS STEALING HIS THUNDER!!!

The deets makes sense and show yet another Missouri politico mostly concerned with career more than any other cause. Check it:

(Missour AG) CHRIS KOSTER (And Yet Another Missouri Political Double Cross)

This week was the veto session, which created a ripe environment for politicos to gather in Jefferson City for several days and do what they do best: Gossip and chatter about each other. The juiciest bit that made the rounds is about Chris Koster, a Republican turned Democrat and the presumptive D nominee for governor in 2016.

Some quick background for those who haven't been following along. It seems that Chris is more than just a little unnerved by the talk that Claire may jump into the race and challenge him, which this BLOG was the first to correctly report BTW. It also seems that talk about Claire running is more than just idle gossip as she has contacted several key Dem donors and politicos around the state telling them to stay tuned and that she will make the call early next year. Word of this has made its way back to a newly nervous Koster, who for almost 2 years has been given a clear pass by the Dems to duck issues that are important to the party but that he finds more convenient to ignore. He has used this pass to walk a very moderate to conservative line on many issues including recent ones like the "right to farm" effort, the Affordable Care Act, gay marriage and the right to carry. Chris has been working hard to earn the reputation as a DINO who is only looking out for himself. This stuff anyone who is even a casual observer of politics already knows.

NOW, onto the real development: Chris is so unnerved by the specter of Claire that he has begun calling major republican donors, in effect, offering to take their "input and guidance" on key administration positions if they will write him big checks. Chris is clearly worried about a possible Claire entry into the race, and he is willing to quietly gamble away any Democratic street cred he has to try to keep her out by showing a huge war chest of campaign money.

Should the governor's mansion be up for sale? And, will Democrats continue to allow him to ignore party principals and still be their standard bearer? If the veto session was any bell-weather, strap in, this could be a bumpy ride. Developing...

  3. Koster can beat Claire like a drum for any office he chooses in this state. Her hubby's bedsore money cannot change that.

  4. Remember when Koster was the prosecutor in Cass County and had a "no plea bargain policy" on certain crimes?

    Are you trying to say their were no lawyers who got special deals?

    I am not saying there were.

    I just want to see if anyone will try to tell me that.

  5. What's the deal with Kosters divorce from the daughter of that rich republican?

    Anyone got anything good on that?

  6. And for the naysayers...yes, Koster likes women.

    I used to see him with a hot blond over at the Barnes and Noble on the Kansas side, Town Center Square.

    So there!

  7. Koster is not up for same job as Claire. No issues.

  8. 6:10 Anyone can hire a hot blond, even gay men.

  9. So... he's a moderate? Wow! Pretty damning...

    I bet that'll really turn off the average missouri voter.

  10. If Koster isn't double-crossing someone, including fiancees, wives, Democratic party, etc., he just must not be feeling well.

    Koster is a dick, and I think it's great that Claire will steal his thunder.

  11. Gossip to kick off Friday.

  12. I like Kris Koster. Sad that he would not take up some really important issues as AG but... overall I like the fact that he does not run in the same circles as Claire.

    ReplyDelete
  13. He doesn't run in the same circles as Claire? You mean the hot blond that 6:10 saw him with was not Claire?

    ReplyDelete
  14. Claire would just about gaurantee a Rethug governor. Ther not going to run another total dipshit against her and she should have beat akin by 20+ points. There's no way the dem establishment lets her bully her way into that race.

    If she does, Missouri = kansas within 4 years. Maybe worse (if that's possible without being in the Deep South)

    ReplyDelete
  15. This story is part of the McCaskill game plan....sully your likely opponent by having your mercenaries raise questions about his values/loyalty, etc.

    She admitted to playing dirty politics in her race against Akin, even going so far as running TV ads for him in the primaries, because she saw him as her weakest challenger in the general election.

    Claire = Dirty Douche

  16. Can someone tell me what this guy has done other than publish a few opinions and brochures?

  17. This is common knowledge in Jeff City. No scoop here,.

  18. from The Daily Mail:

    A Chinese medical student died of a heart attack while looking at a 'sexy magazine' in a sperm bank - on his fourth visit to the centre in just over a week.

    Zheng Gang, 23, was found dead in a private booth of a fertility clinic at Wuhan University after nurses noticed he was spending longer than usual producing his sample.

    "Zheng Gang" translates into English as "Tony Botello"
