It should be no surprise a Democrat nearly won Missouri in 2008. The answer to why Obama narrowly LOST Missouri anyway, the more interesting question, is racism. Hillary would have won it easily in 2008, albeit while likely losing Indiana. Missouri whites even then voted more like Southern than Midwestern whites, and that cost Obama and made all the difference.
