Did you know that the American govt provides tax breaks for all companies to manufacture goods overseas and re-import them for free into the US. If they want jobs to stay then stop the tax breaks for large corps. This is left overs from the car industry.

McCain however, has basically said he will not give any details of his until after the election. Hey Enomisa,

One of which includes investing in renewable energy which can bring 10 million new jobs to the U.S. You need to look no further than the Gameda Wind Turbine Plant in Fairless Hills, PA outside of Philly. Hundreds of new jobs, alternative energy, and clean. I think a lot of Republicans like to speak without thinking. Either that or instead of researching on their own they want Rush Limbaugh or Fox News to tell them. I say a lot because while the majority, not all of them are this simple minded and there are a few who have looked up the issues and realized that Obama is the right candidate.

So let's keep HOPE up!!

These "I-know-you-are-but-what-am-I?" playground politics are quickly reaching the point of absurdity. I'm still trying to decide if the Republican campaign strategy is pathetically childish or absolutely brilliant, as it appears to be quite effective on almost half of our population. In addition to having a minimum age limit for voting in this country, I think we should institute a minimum intelligence limit for voting as well - preferably somewhere above the "playground" comprehension level.

Our "good" Republican Governor for the state of Florida has made it official now--yup, it law. If your Drivers License Address does not match the Address on your Voters Registration Card, You will NOT be Permitted to Vote. What? It looks like they're trying to screw up the thousands of college students that are away, new residents that have recently moved to our state, and people who are oblivious to this fact. My mother was registered in 2004, and now she's received new registration papers. These states are crucial, and I have not heard anything mentioned on our local news stations about this new law. I hope that everyone who wants to vote this election year will have a chance to do so. We don't need excuses like, we didn't have enough volunteers, or the lines were too long. We need to plan accordingly in every state so that everyone can have a chance to become a part of history.

The polls fail to include the wired college and college-educated generation who are Obama's mainstay. I would add another 2-3 points for him in the polls in every state, tipping the scales in key areas.
