North Carolina Governor Suggests Suspending Elections to Spur Economic Solutions
Sounds like a good idea to me:
The solution to the nation's jobs crisis: suspend congressional elections?
That was the proposal put forward by North Carolina's governor, who was trying to make a point at a Rotary Club event that political considerations are hindering efforts in Washington to tackle unemployment and economic stagnation.

Obama Jobs Speech Transcript (9-8-11)
Full Text. Excerpt below:
Tonight we meet at an urgent time for our country. We continue to face an economic crisis that has left millions of our neighbors jobless, and a political crisis that’s made things worse.
This past week, reporters have been asking, “What will this speech mean for the President? What will it mean for Congress? How will it affect their polls, and the next election?”
But the millions of Americans who are watching right now, they don’t care about politics. They have real-life concerns. Many have spent months looking for work. Others are doing their best just to scrape by — giving up nights out with the family to save on gas or make the mortgage; postponing retirement to send a kid to college.
These men and women grew up with faith in an America where hard work and responsibility paid off. They believed in a country where everyone gets a fair shake and does their fair share — where if you stepped up, did your job, and were loyal to your company, that loyalty would be rewarded with a decent salary and good benefits; maybe a raise once in a while. If you did the right thing, you could make it. Anybody could make it in America.

Democrats Should Challenge President Obama in the Primaries
Democrats Should Challenge President Obama in the Primaries - Americans for Political Change
This President has not only failed the American people he has betrayed his party. It is the responsibility of true Democrats to challenge someone who acts more like a Republican. At the very least a challenger could force Obama to keep the promises he made in 2008.- Join the discussion.

What Democrats can do about Obama
What Democrats can do about Obama
Obama has ruined the Democratic Party. The 2010 wipeout was an electoral catastrophe so bad you'd have to go back to 1894 to find comparable losses. From 2008 to 2010, according to Gallup, the fastest growing demographic party label was former Democrat. Obama took over the party in 2008 with 36 percent of Americans considering themselves Democrats. Within just two years, that number had dropped to 31 percent, which tied a 22-year low.
