I heard some conservatism in his speech. And alot of liberalism. His department of education sounds like it will make Bush’s lean and mean and his promise to hand out $$ if you have to take a pay cut due to job loss is something that conservatives must rip to shreds.

Sarah targeted the base. John targeted the soccer moms and swing voters.

“His department of education”

McCain said school choice. That sounds ... great to me.

I agree with your remarks. I clinched my teeth when he started talking about “worker training”.

We need to get the federal gov’t out of education and return it to the states and local communities. I support school choice but question how effective it will ever be under the control of D.C.

The reverse argument of that would be to imagine what the schools would look like in Detroit, New Orleans, and San Francisco.

It’s a tough topic.
