Important issues can be an opinion, but what I'm really looking for is any issues. Anything about any of them. Numbers, names, political party, what they think of the war, abortion, gay marriage. Just about anything.
Please tell me about any of them you know of!

Here is just one example :

Democrat Ned Lamont ,a multimillionaire businessman who spent about $4 million of his own money in the primary, is tapping his personal fortune once again. He has written checks totaling $1.5 million for his general election bid, his campaign confirmed Wednesday. Lamont gave his campaign $1 million on Sept. 11. He wrote a $500,000 check on Aug. 22.

DNC money will complement get-out-the-vote efforts already planned by the DCCC and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Labor unions also are planning to spend $40 million to get voters to the polls. And the liberal group MoveOn.org is planning to spend about $12 million to mobilize voters.

Do you think, based solely on political merit that Hilary Clinton would be good for our country? Is the country ready for a women president? If "yes", who could do a better job than Mrs. Clinton.

I believe his willingness to stand up to authority is what got him elected. I find that Minnesotans have a history of doing that. This could really be sending a message as to what changes are in the future of this countries elections ahead.

How can Washington state pass a law requiring me to vote for only one party's candidates? Then they have the gaul to say even if I disagree with this law (which says my vote won't count if I don't follow their jacka$$ law) I need to vote because of non-partisan issues.? WHo's frickin idea was this mess!?

Or how about this one: Will Zimbabwe ever have a non-black president? Or, will Pakistan ever have a non-Pakistani president? Or all they all racists?

I ask this because another questioner presumes that because in the few countries in the world where whites are not a minority, they tend to have white leaders, they must be racist.

But let's be fair here. Let's apply this standard everywhere. If it is wrong for Americans, who are majority white, for now, to have white leaders, then why is there no great outcry that China has never had a non-Chinese leader? Why are we the only ones expected to yield in the name of tolerance and anti-racism, but when we ask the same of others, it is called imperialism? Isn't that a fair question?

public relation stunt? This way they can say-see things are so bad. Then, if they win again, gas prices skyrocket as soon as they are in control for another four years.

Is it strictly for voting in primaries or is there anything else to it. Perhaps I don't like the way the GOP is headed--should I register in that party so that I could have the chance to fix it.
