  • Election predictions-- Whose going to win?

    Are the dem's going to take back congress as they are predicting or will the GOP maintain it's majority? What are your predictions? The Republican's are pulling ahead in the polls and it seems like it could be a dead heat in a-lot of races by the time election day gets here.

    Are Kerry's comments going to hurt the democrats?

  • Michael J. Fox's political spot?

    If you havent seen the ad, you can watch it here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6519714054...

    What do you think about Fox's political commercial? Do you think his tremors are exaggerated in the ad as some have suggested? Keep in mind that in his book, Fox admits to having gone off his medication when making political appearances like the one he made before a senate committee on stem cell research. Even if that is true do you think it is wrong?

  • Do people just not understand the minimum wage?

    I belive that most American's have such a limited knowledge of how the minimum wage works that they think simply raising it will fix all of our problems. They believe raising the minimum wage will suck money from the pockets of the greedy capitalists and redistribute it to the masses--righting all that is wrong in the universe. Do you think this is so?

    At some point, when you raised the minimum wage beyond the market level, unemployment would result. Employers just wouldn't be able to pay the same amount of work force at the new, higher minimum. Market theory tells us this is true.

    Would that really be better? Having a smaller, higher paid unskilled workforce.

  • What is the democrats strategy for winning in November?

    Please let me preface this by saying I don't have an affiliation with any political party in particular. This is a bi-partisan question.

    It seems to me that the Democrats have absolutly no strategy or idea about what they are going to do when they retake control of Congress... except impeach Bush. Does this seem unethical to anyone? Regardless of your opinions on Bush, shouldn't a party gain power based upon their plans to implement new, better policy rather than their talking points about how stupid the current administration is?
