Senator Coons, Support Begich’s “Protecting and Preserving Social Security Act” and forget about Bowles-Simpson

Senator, You seem like a reality based guy. You know full well that Social Security isn't in danger of becoming insolvent any time soon, and according to the program’s actuaries, without any changes, Social Security will be able to pay out full benefits until 2033. But you also have Republican colleagues in the Senate who want to kill the program, and can't stop yammering about what a threat it is to our well being as a nation. So you need to be in favor of some sort of reform.... Well, check this out.

Loudell needs to fire Rasmussen once and for all

If WDEL's Allan Loudell (who I like and respect) ever interviews Don Rasmussen again, he will knowingly be taking part in journalistic fraud.
“But the most entertaining fall-out will be the recriminations of pollsters and polling generally in the wake of Romney’s 330+ electoral vote win next Tuesday." — Don Rasmussen
Real political polling is about dispassionate math and rigor. Rasmussen's product is about trying to prop up a corrupt and corrosive political ideology. Allan, take the card out of the Rolodex . There are plenty of legitimate pollsters to interview.
