St. Louis Public Radio reporter Jo Mannies' analysis: Missouri GOP contenders for governor mince no words during heated debate

"The heightened tensions were notable because, for the most part, the four Republicans agree on most issues. All four repeatedly affirmed their support for gun rights, their opposition to abortion and their vows not to expand Medicaid in Missouri, as sought by the Affordable Care Act."

"While the energetic acrimony was certainly one of the defining characteristics of the debate, there were some surprises from a policy and style standpoint."
