The Unspoken Contender: A Different Blunt

In the storm of speculation following Kit Bond's announced retirement and Roy Blunt's strong signal that he'll enter the race, a number of potential GOP primary contenders have been talked about for Blunt's seat.  Joplin Senator Gary Nodler, Mt. Vernon Senator Jack Goodman, Nixa Representative Jay Wasson, outgoing Governor Matt Blunt and Webb City Representative Bryan Stevenson have each been mentioned as possible candidates to succeed Roy Blunt.

Heretofore unmentioned is another possible contender for the 7th Congressional District Republican nomination, Roseann Blunt.  With the contacts her sons Matt and Andy bring to the table, the first Mrs. Blunt might be a strong candidate in the fight for the nomination.­­
