Bailout may be the word of the year (if it isn't "change"). The government is bailing out wall street and banks and financial industries. The housing market is horrible, mortgages are crazy, and home values are sinking. But there is an efficient solution to ease our economic turmoil.

I turned legal voting age in 2001. I missed the 2000 Gore V Bush election by one year. I was a senior in high school that year (2000-2001) when I first caught the political bug, thanks to a brilliant, enthusiastic History and Government teacher and current events at that time.

I missed the 'Clinton' years because I was too young and was not interested (but can appreciate it in hindsight). The following year i went on to get my BA in Political Science blah blah blah, and obviously, I'm a proud liberal Democrat.

That being said, the last 8 years of my life, the entire span of my political junkiness, has been fighting against 'the power', being against the 'status quo', and rallying against the 'evil' leader of the other party, George W. Bush.

Hi, this is a short diary but important so please don't attack this! I am inquiring about where I would find, if it exists, a website or some source that has the presidential polls broken down by congressional district or county?

We have one debate left and there are alot of good questions out there that should or need to be asked. Forget 'how will you fix the economy' and other "vague 1 million different ways to answer'... I've thought of some. Please share some of yours.

The Bridge to Nowhere gaffe is political gold and i hope the Democrats pick up on it! I would love to see an Obama ad discussing Palin's lies about the Bridge to Nowhere with the Talking Heads song "Road To Nowhere" playing... this is even more fitting since the money was used not for a bridge, but a road to nowhere!

Today while shopping at the Garden State Plaza in Bergen County, New Jersey, an offensive note was left on my car.

My car has a few bumper stickers on it. I do not have my Obama 08 sticker on there yet since they have been on back order for so long. BUT I do have an anti-Hillary Clinton bumper sticker on my VW Beetle thay says "Democrats against Hillary."

Im sorry for this short diary, but this news is absolutely disturbing. I wish the democratic candidates would voice their opposition to this.

This news may have a huge impact! I remember when Christie Vilsack (the governors wife) came out and supported Kerry right before the primary, and Kerry shot right up to the top...

John Edwards may not get the nomination. This really disappoints me. I have supported him all the way through, and I believe he is the best person to serve this nation. I may shed a tear if he has to give a concession speech. But I will feel good that he is the Democratic kingmaker....

I know this website is full of Edwards, Obama, and Kucinich fans. Some are Clinton fans. But I beg of you to take a serious look at Presidential contender Joe Biden, D-DE. Here is why:

After much deep thought and analysis of the top three democratic candidates running for president, I've come up with a multitude of scenarios of how each candidate could end up winning the nomination. The 'Brokered Convention' was a hot topic in my thought process--but I wonder how much of it is objective thought versus my deep down political junkie desire to see a brokered convention. Then I thought about how Hillary is 'moving to the right'. I don't think she is. Edwards and Obama are moving to the left. Why?

I am a huge John Edwards supporter, donating money and spreading the word that John Edwards is the best candidate for President. However something has been bothering me lately. As a gay young man, I take gay issues seriously (although it isn't my make or break issue). Since I am not poor, nor do I need health insurance, I do not fight in Iraq, and I am pretty well off financially, gay rights is the issue that I can be most directly affected by.
