okay you inquiring minds...here it is...
In 1956 Dwight Eisenhower ran for re-election against Adlai Stevenson, coincidentally the man he'd also run against (and won over) in 1952. In 1952, Missouri voted for Eisenhower & he won, but in the 1956 election, Missouri voted for Stevenson (who did not win--Eisenhower was re-elected). This 2008 election will be only the second time that MO has not voted with the winning candidate...
So there you have it folks...history lesson for the day!
Man! You are a wealth of knowlege Jenn. Thats going to be one smart baby.
