Alan, Esq. - Hey John McCain...

If you would have adopted some of the arguments Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) had made on the floor of the Senate last night, you would not be plummeting in the polls.

Here, DeMint persuasively and effectively both defends the free market and shows how government meddling in our free market only makes things worse. I would almost say that his remarks were "Reagan-esque."

However, it is becoming apparent that America did not learn from the governmental economic interventionist mistakes of the Jimmy Carter presidency and the Democratic congresses of the 1960's and 70's. America may very well elect Barack Obama and give Democrats a larger majority in Congress. Hence, when regulation fails, government will respond with even more regulation, which may likely cause a return of double-digit inflation and interest rates.

*sigh*

I am so utterly disgusted with Mc Cain right now..what a golden op to be able to say no to "earmarks and pork" His credabilty just went out the window.

Of course I can't vote for the socialist on the other side but I am so damn sick of the lack of balls in an effort to be bipartasin.

For many people (right or wrong, good or bad): at the end of 8 years of clinton and the dems, a good healthy economy and a substantial surplus; at the end of 8 years of the current bush and the reps, a disastrous economy and a substantial deficit (let alone, seemingly never-ending war). This may not seem fair to some, but such a picture seems to be the way many people are viewing the present landscape.
