Consider This

There were two excellent op eds in the Wall Street Journal yesterday, and just in case you didn't see them. I am linking them here. The first one I read explains alot about how our lovely state, and maybe yours, can not be bothered to balance a budget. All of this is very relevant to today when we know we all will have a challenge ahead of us. Our economy is officially in a tail spin. If we want to pull it back to fly straight and level, we better think of why--during the biggest period of growth and higher revenues we couldn't manage. Our budgets for the State will most certainly be less for a while.

This article lays out the difference between real policy differences related to Obama's plan for our economy. It is an extremely important read, and even if you ascribe to a different political view, the facts speak for themselves.

So, as I talk to all the women of my town who keep crowing about Palin and anti choice, I keep saying there is a million to one shot that she can affect any change on that front, but a much greater chance that Obama on the top of the ticket, could wreak major economic havoc and it may be a tough blow from which to recover.
