that the guv's race is too close to call while Obama is ahead suggests it's more than just the minimum wage folks who are post like.

Rossi is afraid to call himself a Republican and is bought and paid for by the builders. What will they want in return? Isn't housing and real estate part of the roots of our current economic trouble?

Speaking as a single mother...

...I'm not clamoring for a SUB-minimum wage job. I've never heard any other single mothers complaining that they can't find minimum wage jobs either, wouldn't it be nice if they could work for less? I have heard a lot of women in such positions wishing they could find BETTER jobs though, (and affordable child care, financial aid for education, help getting child support out of the fathers, better access to birth control, affordable housing -- is Rossi addressing those concerns?)
