Republicans Are NOT TALKING ABOUT THE ECONOMY, I Wonder Why?
I haven't heard one word from the Republicans at their convention about the economy, in a prime time speech.

It's all been TERRA, TERRA, TERRA!

Will this be the first convention ever not to talk about the party's economic record?

1. You must not have seen Arnold lastnight--
where he said "don't be an economic girlie-man" and kept talking about how good the economy was doing and that we will come out of it.

3. according to guests on Franken today bush will talk about his
dream of the future, including the economy in his speech - plus talk about his idea of an ownership society, where you save money and pay toward your own retirement or whatever the heck the plan is.

4. Right. Save what money?
Money from the new job you have that has no medical benefits and that replaced your old job where you made 30% more money? "Ownership" really means "your on your own.'
