All the silly talk of Scott Brown's election being the resurgence of the Republcians party and the end of liberalism seems to have been a bit premature.

He may well be a symbol of a resurgence of a more reasonable liberal less hard line Republican party.

There are two paths for the Republican party in the comming election cycle. If they choose the Scott Brown path, they will have chosen to be a strong and powerforce for good, they will help choose a healthy path for America in the lee of the storm we are in...

If they choose to follow the Palin, Barbor, Cheney path they may win big once, but they will be an agent of obstruction, and holding back a future is a fruitless bath that will not chart a path to progress but merely slow it. Ultimatly this choice will lead the Republican party to continue wandering in the desert of the forseeable future.

It will be interesting here in Florida if they choose the popular liberal Republcian governor Charlie Christ as a senatoral canidate or if they will go with the mercurial hard nosed Rubio.

Hey Chap, didn't Brown run saying he was against the original stimulus? Why is this different?

i dont know what the difference between the 2 are but he seems to think this new one will create jobs in MA. the last one certainly didn't.
 
This one was created specifically to aim at non-public jobs creation. I think that it could be good if they remove the incentive to fire the current employees in order to get the tax break. It works on tax breaks to incentivize creation of jobs, the problem is it gives no incentive to continue employing those you already employ. Basically it incentivizes laying off current workers and replacing them with those you already laid off...

It incentivizes keeping employees as well as hiring people. You should read the bill:
