Missour'ns love mules. Part of the state history in many ways. Here's  
one:

The commonly recognized party symbol of the Libertarian party is the  
Statute of Liberty. Because the Democrat party was already using Lady  
Liberty, Missouri Libertarians selected another ballot emblem. From  
1996 to 2004, the Missouri Libertarian Party used the Missouri Mule as  
their official ballot emblem but in 2004 changed their emblem to the  
Statue of Liberty, matching their national party emblem.
