I think that the backlash for using too much negative campaigning will be that less and less ppl will vote, because they'll just refuse to listen to negative hate speech. In that case, the only voting public will be the crazies that DO stay behind and put up with the hate ranting.

Jim Emery's series is complete, and you should look through it. I find it interesting that he speaks about the "Macaca moment" and all that entails, given the current situation in the Minnesota Governor's race. Jim's posts describe what it was like to be in the communications division of a...

Our society is being controlled by the politically correct, and a result of this is society is becoming weaker. Lacking common sense is a big trait by those strongly politically correct. what other arguments would you have against the politically correct?

There was an election in November of 2008, but you probably knew that already. You cast a vote for a presidential candidate, and if you were especially interested, put a bumper sticker on your car and a sign in your yard. If you're a typical Minnesotan, somewhat more engaged in the process than...

I'd like a game where I can take control of a nation and make domestic and foreign policy decisions, and hopefully my decisions will have some reaction in the game. I want it to be free... not paid.

Over the summer I have to pick a political story in the newspaper to follow for my politics class. I was wondering what you guys thought, as I am stuck. It has to be British politics, and I thought that I would maybe do something on immigration as that seems to be developing a lot and I find it...
