It is an idea that <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/26/health/policy/26health.html" rel="nofollow">is only applicable when Democrats</a> want it to be applicable. <br /><br />Even so I hope that the best candidate is elected to the US Senate, regardless of what letter that candidate puts after their name.<br /><br />I don't see much on Mr. Glassman's site that inspires me. No mention of billions of wasteful spending on the occupation of foreign countries. He does put in a dig about big corporations but corporations can't do anything the government doesn't permit them to do. <br /><br />He does mentions the ever popular (among Democrats) fable of government making college education more affordable. Decades of government subsidies have driven college tuitions through the roof. <a href="http://mises.org/daily/2293" rel="nofollow">Government needs to stop subsidizing</a> college tuition so that college can become affordable again.Thane Eichenauerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12848580360960232789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23717700.post-28910742810177607442010-04-07T08:48:47.078-07:002010-04-07T08:48:47.078-07:00He's got an uphill battle ahead of him, uphill...He's got an uphill battle ahead of him, uphill to the point that he's going to need some help from the Republicans.<br /><br />Help they will provide if their primary continues to get rougher. That will bloody up both Hayworth and McCain.<br /><br />Of course, a Hayworth victory in the primary would make Glassman's task much easier.<br /><br />It's definitely going to be interesting to watch.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03338682971485143332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23717700.post-25905432155606583272010-04-07T06:51:47.583-07:002010-04-07T06:51:47.583-07:00So how good of a shot do you think Glassman has to...So how good of a shot do you think Glassman has to contend with the McCain/Hayworth winner? I assumed the Democrats didn't have much of a chance once Napalitano (who I think everyone assumed would be the natural choice for a run at the Senate seat) was removed as a contender.tempe turleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00906350838729139212noreply@blogger.com
