Now that the 2008 presidential race is officially underway it might be useful to take a serious look at a few developments. These include:
Alaska - leaning Obama, now McCain 35% - 54%.
California - Obama 14% lead, now 9%.
New Jersey - Obama 10% lead, now 6%.
North Carolina - Obama trailed by 3%, now trails 20%.
Ohio - leaning Obama, now McCain 44% - 51%.
Pennsylvania - Obama 5% lead, now 2%.
Virginia - Obama 2% lead, now trails by 2%.
Washington - Obama 7% lead, now 4%.

The news from Iowa, Nevada, and New Mexico continues to be good for the Obama campaign but the rumblings from the Midwest, the West and Virginia are troubling to say the least.
Now is the time when democrats should be pounding on the economic issues which cause most U.S. citizens to stay awake at night worrying about their families.
Unfortunately, the lib-cons totally capitualted on the economic issues when they bailed out the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac investors instead of their victims.
The cost of that betrayal is now starting to become evident.
Proposing "Pie in the sky" programs with benefits that MAY become evident ten years from now is not going to win this election. Did the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac investors have to wait ten years to benefit from their legislation? No - and the American people won't wait either.

Cindy Sheehan For Congress
The Democratic Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, was the house sponsor of HR 3221 the so called "Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008."
This act was signed into law by Republican President George W. Bush on July 30th of this year. It is the authority under which U.S tax payers have been required to assume liability for the debts incurred by the investors who engineered the current mortgage crisis.
Hundreds of thousands of our fellow citizens have been evicted from their homes by these "champions of the free market" who now demand to be protected from the consequences of their own greed.
This bail out clearly demonstrates yet again that there is no "gridlock" in Washington.
The professional politicians are capable of quickly addressing issues which are likely to have a favorable impact upon them.
It is the issues which would favorably impact the lives of the vast majority of the citizens of this nation which are ignored by them.
Cindy Sheehan is running for congress in California's 8th Congressional District. Cindy favors:
1. The repeal of All "Free Trade" Agreements
2. Single-Payer Healthcare
3. Affordable Housing
4. Immigrant Workers' Rights
5. Free and Quality Education
6. A National Energy System
7. A Mass Transit System

The staff of The Wilderness Voice is confident that Representative Cindy Sheehan will be a member of congress that the people of California can be proud of and who they can rely upon to serve their interests in Washington.

Charging Interest
The charging of interest is a vile, evil practice which is offensive to the LORD - the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Jesus Christ.
Prior to the Council of Nicea in 325 AD the church actually forbade Christians to charge interest.
This change at Nicea was made at the insistence of the Emperor Constantine.
Permitting the charging of interest was part of the deal which the church made to become the state religion of the Roman Empire.
It was an immoral and sinful decision by the church
