Dealing With The Issues at Forbes
Forbes.com has a great package edited by Jon Bruner and Paul Murdock- Candidate Central: Dealing With The Issues. It has a lot of great info. One neat feature are the candidate 'tracking cards' that kinda remind me of baseball trading cards (or Magic or Pokemon cards for the younger generation...) I wonder if this could be used to spread information about the candidates to more people. Surely it wouldn't be too expensive to print the cards up - Photo, name of candidate, where they stand on issues, etc.
Is that a project anyone here would be interested in helping with? Once we had them, what would be the best way to distribute?

Clinton vs. Paul
I guess I have a little trouble understanding their definitions of conservative and liberal. I find it hard to believe that Ron Paul is more liberal that Hillary Clinton in any category.
good point rex...
i didn't really see that information in the piece. the graphics were nifty, though. ;)
Candidate Tracking Cards
Bob Hertzog
I like the idea in principle. However, I'd like to know how one determines whether a point of view is liberal or conservative. That's a judgement that is made from a particular perspective. For example, form my liberal perspective, I would put Hillary a bit on the moderate side, a bit to conservative for me!!! :} Seriously, though, People on the liberal side of the spectrum might see Giuliani as a conservative. He keeps telling us he is. However, many conservatives see him as a flaming liberal, too close to the democrats for their satisfaction.
even better maybe
Do something online where people could pick/vote on how they think the candidates stand, then average all those out ...
Hmmm...
