21796 [lbo-talk] trade & job loss -- rank: 1000
[Ok, so Ben Bernanke's a Republican and a governor of the Federal Reserve. But his numbers are hard to argue with.] <http://www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/speeches/2004/20040330/> To address the key area of public concern, I will focus here on the job-loss side of the equation. Estimates of the gross number of job losses associated with increased import penetration vary widely, but one representative calculation, by Lori Kletzer (2001), put the gross job loss due to imports at nearly 310 ...

21799 [lbo-talk] Clarke Effect: Bush's Poll Numbers IMPROVE!!! -- rank: 1000
Michael Pollak wrote: >I think the Clarke stuff will matter in the long run. It's knocking out >Bush's main plank. According to the NY Post version of a Newsweek poll, large numbers of people are dismissing Clarke as "partisan" and "self-interested." So he may not be changing that many minds, at least at the popular level. It could mean more trouble for Bush with the ruling class, though, and if it does, the press could turn far more hostile.

mike larkin wrote: >"There are more people who would like to have Bush over for a beer >than Kerry." As ABC's The Note put it, the Bush strategy is to make Kerry look like a cross between Mike Dukakis, Al Gore, Ted Kennedy, and Thurston Howell. It seems to be working. Doug

Urbanite that I am, I don't think much about topsoil, though I know I'd be rather hungry without it. But Grinnell sounds like a very cool, progressive place - though it's been a while since I spent time in a locality of fewer than 10,000 people. Doug

21807 [lbo-talk] me in (gasp) Iowa -- rank: 1000
I'm going to be holding forth at a symposium on "Globalization and Cultural Capital" at the humanities center, Grinnell College, on April 8 at 11 AM, and again at a roundtable on April 9 at 4:15 PM. I think they're open to the public, though I don't think many listmembers are anywhere near Grinnell, Iowa. For more on the symposium, see <http://web.grinnell.edu/centhumanities/symposium/globalization.html>. Doug

Bush Support Steady in Wake of Clarke Criticisms Kerry Issue Advantage Ebbs As Voter Opinion Fluctuates A week's worth of criticism of his pre-Sept. 11 record on terrorism has had little impact on President Bush's support among voters. He is now running even with Sen. John Kerry in a head-to-head match-up among registered voters (47% Kerry-46% Bush) after trailing Kerry by 52%-43% in mid-March. Voter opinions have been fluid in this early stage of the presidential contest, but Bush has held his ...
