   JEFFERSON CITY,  Mo.  (AP)  Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell is helping pad the campaign account of Missouri gubernatorial candidate Dave Spence.  McDonnell,  who is chairman of the Republican Governors Association, headlined a suburban St. Louis fundraiser for Spence's challenge of Democrat Governor Jay Nixon.  Spence campaign officials say the event drew about 125 people and raised more than $150,000. The national Republicans governors' association has donated more than $1.75 million to its affiliate in Missouri.
