Messenger's Bombshell

You've probably already read the must-read political piece of the week.

If not, treat yourself HERE.

It's a carefully detailed piece by the Springfield News-Leader's Tony Messenger. And although it's part of his column, it's really just stellar journalism.

From Tony's reporting, it looks like Eckersley will keep this in the news with a lawsuit.

And Gov. Matt Blunt's political opponents are just waiting to pounce on his response -- of what he knew about all of this, and when he knew it.

The question is what kind of legs this story has outside of "insiders" . . . and whether this is just a story about a messy personnel situation or a broader one about the Governor's character.
