6. He benefited from the federal TARP (or simply bank bailout) and lied when asked to account for his bank's failure to pay back the $42,000.000 TARP funding. He is also unable to explain why he resigned from the Board of Directors of Reliance bank.

Millionaire Dave Spence has vowed to go after the Missouri workers' rights. H wants to take away the rights of the police and firefighters that protect us including him, the nurses that treat us including him, and the public teachers that educate our children excluding Spence because his children are chauffeured to private school. He will devastate the already shrinking Missouri middle-class.


As an icing on the cake: Millionaire Dave Spence was arrested for DWI at the age of 47 in 2004. So much for his right-wing conservative moral and family values.

He has vowed to take away the rights of the police and firefighters, nurses, teachers, nurses, sanitation workers etc. if he becomes Missouri's next governor! Spence will devastate Missouri just like Scott Walker in Wisconsin and John Kasich in Ohio. Send Spence back to his $8,000,000 mansion in St. Louis. He is a wolf dressed in a sheep's skin!

Millionaire Dave Spence lives in this luxurious $8,000,000 estate with a golf course.  Can you afford Spence to be Missouri's next Governor when according to the census data half of Americans are poor and of low-income? You lost your job, home, health care, retirement etc or squeaking by! Is Spence the man you want in the Governor's mansion during this economic crisis? According to statistical reports Spence is part of the 1% that owns more than the wealth of the bottom 90% of Americans. The shameless Spence needs to go home and hide in the $8,000,000 mansion.

We want to leave you with a quote from the first campaign e-mail that Dave Spence sent to his supporters:



"We can beat Jay Nixon, and we can change the direction of this state with fresh new ideas and proven leadership based on the values we share.  But I am going to need your help. My ideas to enact right-to-work, tort-reform and tax reform are going to be controversial but they are badly needed reforms which will make Missouri more competitive and put Missouri on the path to prosperity and job growth."

We will fully analyze the quotes in red in a different article but we will briefly mention them here"

"Enact right-to-work": Dave Spence vows to take away the rights of Missouri police, firefighters, nurses, teachers, sanitation workers etc. Does that remind you of Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin and Gov. John Kasich of Ohio. Spence acknowledges in his e-mail that the idea is controversial because it's one of the oppressive instruments that the right-wing conservative Republicans use to bust the middle class!

Tort-reform: If elected, Spence will make it harder for you to sue for your rights. Even wrongful death will be hard to litigate! Corporate American can do anything they want to Missouri citizens and you can't fight for your rights. Spence wants to change the law to favor the rich over the middle class, the low income, and the poor.

Tax Reform: Dave Spence will change Missouri's tax laws so that he can create more loopholes for the wealthy like him. Spence wants to be the next Missouri Governor to create more wealth for himself and his opulent buddies! This is greed pure and simple. His first executive order if elected will be a tax break for the rich. The shrinking Missouri middle class due to the high expenses and unemployment will still shoulder the responsibility of paying taxes to support the poor Missourians.


   Millionaire Dave Spence is worth $260,000,000. He wants to buy Missouri Governor's office!


THE WALL STREET-CONNECTED MILLIONAIRE DAVE SPENCE WILL DEVASTATE THE SHRINKING MISSOURI MIDDLE CLASS WHATEVER THAT' LEFT OF IT!
