Two priceless ads out of Missouri we didn't mention yesterday, but thought we'd get up today. Do you think they should crack our top 10? Thoughts? (Hat tip: Politico's Martin.)

What exactly is a "Combat Bible"? This is for MO-8.

Here's how St. Louis Today's Political Fix blog sums it up: "Sowers taught at West Point and served in the Army special forces -- and the "combat bible" he says he brought with him in the field. ... The ad hits a lot of key notes for a rookie candidate running to unseat a longtime incumbent in a Republican district: It's no accident that Sowers, a Democrat, recites the phrase 'new blood' twice in the 30-second ad -- but does not mention his partisan affiliation once."
