Ex-Sen. Talent still thinking about McCaskill rematch
Former Sen. Jim Talent (R-Mo.) passed on running for Missouri's open Senate seat this cycle, but he's still thinking about a rematch with Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.).

"I do have to make a decision early next cycle if I'm going to run," Talent told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Since losing to McCaskill in 2006 by less than 50,000 votes, Talent has remained in Washington working on national security issues.

"I do want to stay involved or, if anything, step up my involvement in public affairs. It could take that form , it could take many forms," he said. "Now is not the time to be withdrawing from public affairs."

1. Bring it on, No-Talent! Hopefully, Claire can spank you again.
Although, SOMETIMES I think Sen. McCaskill's Democrat card should be revoked!

2. LOL NoTalent Jim!!
He PAID kids to come to our rally and distrupt. It was freakin hilarious. Bush was in town and we were 'welcoming' him. It was early September and we were all dressed in shorts and t-shirts. Then this group of young kids joins us and they all have shirts and ties and dresses, hose and heels on! It was a major WTF moment.

Then when Bush's motorcade went by, the cops had put up a ropeline which was no big deal cause it was right next to a busy street. But as soon as Bush was a block away, the well dressed NoTalent employees shoved through the crowd and tried to push people into the street.

As we were cleaning up after the event, they were dropping trash everywhere. I went over and told them the next time they wanted to infiltrate a gathering of the left they should leave their church clothes at home.
