34. What have you done for me lately, Baby?
Know that song. To win we need to tell people what we will do for them in the future. Talking about our sucesses in the past won't get many votes. We also need to examine our issues and see which ones are popular, and which ones the public doesn't want.

What's wrong with tort reform to stop the lawsuit insanity? The schools that I substitue teach in don't have playground equipment anymore. They are afraid of getting sued if a kid has an accident.

38 states have DOMA legislation, and even Clinton signed a Federal DOMA. I'm sorry, but gay marriage is a losing issue, at this time. Look for Rove to use this one against us. I expect the Federal Marriage Amendment to come up for a vote early next year, thereby putting Democratic congressmen, senators, and state legislators on the spot. I am NOT saying that it should be a loser, only that it is a loser.
