There are probably many reasons why Missouri's Roy Blunt is the least popular GOP Senate candidate. His extensive ties to Wall Street and lobbyists (he dumped his first wife to marry one) don't help. But, I suspect one of Blunt's biggest problems is that he's gone DC. Very DC.
And, if one needs proof, Blunt provides it. He was at the reopening of the Georgetown Safeway last week, because it's his local grocery store. Nothing says you're not from Missouri anymore than being a regular at the Social Safeway in Georgetown.
This really further exposes Roy Blunt for the fraud that he is. And, I love this statement from the Missouri Democratic Party. Nails it:
“This might be the one case where we can take Congressman ‘Bailout’ Blunt at his word: he stopped calling Missouri his home a long time ago,” said Ryan Hobart, Communications Director for the Missouri Democratic Party. “In fact, the ‘Social Safeway’ is right around the corner from the multi-million dollar mansion he and his lobbyist wife Abigail are building in Washington. If there is one thing that is clear, it is that Congressman ‘Bailout’ Blunt has forgotten where he came from and is never coming back to Missouri.”
This isn’t the first time Congressman Blunt has forgotten where his home is. Last year, he had listed his Washington, DC mansion in Georgetown as his primary residence and owed nearly $7,000 in back taxes.
