An ad for Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan's U.S. Senate run has landed her campaign in hot water with Fox News Network. In a suit filed in federal court in Kansas City on Wednesday, Fox claims Carnahan's September "Clean up the house" ad used an "essentially verbatim copy of a 30-second clip of both video footage and voice-over commentary" from a 2006 interview conducted by Fox anchor Christopher Wallace with U.S. Rep. Roy Blunt, R-Springfield. Wallace is also a plaintiff in the suit.

Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan filed a lawsuit against investment firm Stifel Nicolaus & Co. to force the company to repay investors who lost more than $180 million in the auction- rate securities market. The lawsuit, filed Thursday in Franklin County Circuit Court, alleges the company misled its customers into believing the securities were liquid, rather than long-term, investments. More than 1,200 Stifel Nicolaus investors haven't had access to their money since the $330 billion auction-rate securities market collapsed in February 2008.

In the supposed year of the outsider, Missouri didn't get the memo. The race for the state's open U.S. Senate seat, expected to be one of the most competitive in the nation, pits seven-term Rep. Roy Blunt, former No. 2 in the House GOP leadership, against Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan, a Democrat who was born into one of the state's most prominent political dynasties.

A group working to undo the main thrust of an amendment protecting embryonic stem cell research has the green light to start collecting signatures, the secretary of state's office said Wednesday. The group, Cures Without Cloning, says it wants to prohibit human cloning. The amendment that won narrow approval by Missouri voters last year spells out that research allowed by federal law can occur in Missouri. The main point was to stifle efforts by opponents to criminalize work in embryonic stem cell research, which some in medicine believe has the potential to cure many diseases and conditions. That measure also prohibited human cloning but defined it only as implanting a scientifically created embryo in a woman to grow into a baby.
