Lets see how that helps anyone when jobs are cut on a maturing or introduction period of a product cycle and outsourced. The best idea would be to raise the power of the dollar and add more tax incentives for people making less than 200K. Besides people making that much aren't really that rich and nor are those in jobs/careers that have a capping of salaries. So help a brother out and knock a few 00s off my tax bill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16027645.post-2179228624292251092008-06-10T09:53:00.000-07:002008-06-10T09:53:00.000-07:00She actually has a great opportunity to influence ...She actually has a great opportunity to influence the future health care coverage bills & also to be "Labor's Lion" after her convincing positioning in Pennsylvania & Ohio.<BR/>That's an opportunity open for Sen.

What is the proper/most exciting role for Sen. Clinton now? She's formidable, she brings so much to the leadership and I have mixed feelings about her as a VEEP---but if not that, what? Back to building a strong career as a kick-ass Senator?KHMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05370307704273976378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16027645.post-24436161293962560272008-06-10T09:33:00.000-07:002008-06-10T09:33:00.000-07:00I've been for Obama since Edwards became the third...I've been for Obama since Edwards became the third wheel. However, Lyman's right that Senator Clinton is not VP material: you need someone that wouldn't threaten to overshadow Obama, and having the Bill Clinton circus involved would probably do just that. I do wish the Clinton campaign would back Obama nominating another woman for veep, instead of opposing it. So, it'll probably be a Jim Webb or Bob Graham type.<BR/>I do think Michelle Obama could be the best first lady since, I don't know, Eleanor Roosevelt? <BR/>The line that has kept me in stitches about Michelle & Barack's fist bump: Fox News' lead-in description of it as a "terrorist fist jab"<BR/>They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel already.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16027645.post-54755464348128544642008-06-09T20:11:00.000-07:002008-06-09T20:11:00.000-07:00Don't get too excited about Obama, you're likely t...Don't get too excited about Obama, you're likely to hear some backlash around these parts.<BR/><BR/>It is an exciting time. But for some reason I can't get as excited about an Obama/Clinton ticket as much as I can an Obama/Edwards ticket. I think its because I think Hillary is more suited to be a 'rule-the-roost' type of politician (and I mean that in a good way).Lymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15906826482424760378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16027645.post-26465192547286672432008-06-09T18:15:00.000-07:002008-06-09T18:15:00.000-07:00me, too, Kelly, me, too.
