| Description | The perception that Richard Gephardt is underperforming in his race for president has opened the door to some unexpected competition in his own back yard.
While the veteran St. Louis congressman remains the favorite to win next year's Missouri Democratic primary, fellow candidates Howard Dean, the former Vermont governor, and Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts are making plans to stump in Kansas City this fall.
A third contender, Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, also may venture into Missouri. Edwards has made at least one unpublicized Kansas City visit. And an aide to Joseph Lieberman said the senator from Connecticut was "quietly reaching out to folks in Missouri."
