The Economy, Not Terrorism, Will Be The Issue In The 2008 Campaign
Our economy will be in a full fledge recession throughout 2008, and the campaign will turn on which candidate will do better with the economy.

Because of Free Trade Agreements and IT Outsourcing, the U.S. economy has had no growth since 2000. The only "growth" that we saw was due to the flooding of our economy with cheap debt. For the past 8 years, our entire economy has hinged upon people buying and selling homes and/or withdrawing money from their homes to finance their over-consumption. Well, the housing party is now officially over, and we are back to the true level of zero growth.

In 2008, people will be more worried about providing for their families than Islamofascism.
