Movements and airframes that defy our ...

It's hard to believe the election is here, but its been here ever since North Carolina started early voting on September 4th. Now some 95 million have voted early and its this high turnout that promises to deliver a few surprises on Tuesday; and the Show Me State may be perfectly primed for such a surprise. Traditionally a bellwether, only in the last few cycles has Missouri performed reliably Republican. In this seventh episo...
