Actually the Missouri Presidential race hasn't been called yet for a reason.  There are still thousands of provisional ballots yet to be counted (provisional ballots generally go disproportionately to Democrats), and the margin is now less than 5,000 votes.  So it may be a little bit too early to make this proclamation.

In any event, I would have to say that even Obama eeks out a win in Missouri, it is clear that the state is losing it's bellweather status.  With demographic changes being what they are, I don't know if there are really any good bellweather states left.  Remember when Deleware was a bellweather?
