It's the JOBS, stupid...
lots of polls are showing that the number one issue on voters minds is Jobs.
Not national security, or the environment, or the economy in general-
they're worried about jobs.
Good jobs, with security and good pay and benefits.

we all know that 3 million+ jobs have been lost on this regime's watch-
BUT-
what can a Democratic preident, or any president do to produce these jobs that people want?
How does the U.S. compete with low wages overseas, without violating the WTO/NAFTA rules?

2. kick- looking for some responses...
Edited on Wed Jan-28-04 03:57 PM by Beaker
everyone is happy to pound Bush on the jobs thing...but what will the Democratic administration do that will change what's happening in this country today?
Are we keeping it a big secret so that the repukes don't get wise and give it a try before November?
Honestly, some ideas here-
tax policy changes ARE NOT going to bring high-payed manufacturing jobs back, and I can't think of much that will...so what kinds of things CAN a Democratic administration do to help provide or stimulate gainful employment growth?
