News Hounds: Bill Richardson Lets On He’s Under VP Consideration:
I think that Richardson would be a great choice for Obama.
"New Mexico governor Bill Richardson let it be known on last night’s (6/20/08)
Hannity & Colmes that he’s under consideration to be Barack Obama’s running
mate. Richardson also let it be known that he’s interested."
I think that Richardson would be a great choice for Obama.

Get over it? That's nice.
"If women take a moment to realize that on every issue important to women,
John McCain is not in their corner, that would help them get over it.'"

I think it would be a great thing for this country to see a McCain/Lieberman ticket versus an Obama/Hagel ticket.

I think it would be a great thing for this country to see a McCain/Lieberman ticket versus an Obama/Hagel ticket.

This doesn't clearly point to section 8 units causing crime to me, though it does suggest it. What it also suggests to me is that where there is a high rate of crime, land value and rental prices are lower. It is those areas that would attract a larger number of people with vouchers. Also many landlords don't want to take the vouchers, but landlords with properties that are in hard to rent areas would have to be more open to taking them. What it comes down to for me, in these high crime areas what came first the crime of the vouchers?

How is this a change to believe in?
"Friday morning, scathing editorials in many top broadsheets characterized
Obama’s move as a self-interested flip-flop, dismissed his efforts to cast it as
a principled stand and charged that Obama wasn’t living up to the reformer image
around which he has crafted his political identity."
