Consider this principle that I brilliantly propose:
Free trade agreements are destructive because the distract from,
and entrench, the very unfair trade problems that are causing the
economic gutting of America, the outsourcing, the shoddy and dangerous
goods. Our big problems are not tariffs. They are foreign
subsidies, currency misalignment, foreign border tax regimes.
Gargantuan amounts of price disparity arise from these government
interventions.
Now consider those trapped in the debates of decades past. The WaPo Editorial Board whines today
about the Doha round of WTO talks foundering. The negotiators'
Doha vacation started in Doha, Qatar, in 2001. Seven years
ago. What are they doing all that time, I wonder? Seven
years. Is the golf really good there? |

McCain on trade today:
He accused Mr. Obama of “talking down the value of our exports and trade agreements.”
While Mr. Obama has talked of renegotiating the North American Free
Trade Agreement, or Nafta, Mr. McCain vowed that “in a time of
uncertainty for American workers, we will not undo the gains of years
in trade agreements.”

Incumbent Saxby Chambliss is probably safe in Georgia. While leading all Dems (by at least 15%) competing in the primary is not a great indicator, it's probably a solid assumption. |

As per Rasmussen.
There is a comparison to a prior poll, showing Obama extending his
lead, but that poll was during the primaries, and so irrelevant. |
