He rallied a huge crowd with a stage full of Strong Democrats, each taking the mic in turn to deliver ringing endorsements of Webb and the Democratic Party.

So, maybe something combining Jobs and Endorsements…allthough I have to say the 29th seems like the far distant future right now, and the Jobs issue – as a response to rising populist sentiment towards Violence – might not be able to wait…imho, Security calms Fear.

The Extremists would prefer US to believe that We have no other option than to Drive the Country Off the Cliff – So, We offer up a Job to Cover the Basics – and I bet the Bus will be a Lot Lighter by the time McCain tries to Fly It.

The next crisis after the Financial Meltdown is Jobs.

Safety-Netting Americans with Paying Service Jobs so they can Cover the Basics is the Best Curb to Crime and Violence, and A Strategy that All Sensible and Rational People can Support.
