Pennsylvania Senate Race 2010
The Pennsylvania race for the Senate seat is looking like it will be awarded to the Republicans. Pat Toomey (R) has the lead with 48.1% of the vote while Joe Sestak (D) has 43.4% of the vote. Even though Sestak had recently put in some negative things about Toomey in his commercials, with only one full day remaining until voting day, it would be a fair amount of ground to make up if Sestak was to win. However, through out the whole race, although at times it has been close, Toomey has always kept the lead. So this Republican popularity probably has not come as a shock to the people of Pennsylvania.
Analysis of Job Creation between Boxer and Fiorina
This article explains how Senator Barbara Boxer and opponent Carly Fiorina feel about job creation in the state of California.
Carly is opposed to tax increases on hard-working Americans, which will only further slow down economic recovery and expand government even more.
Boxer has voted for more than $1 trillion in higher taxes over her career in Washington. Some of the higher taxes she’s supported include the gas tax, the income tax and the death tax. And, she’s opposed expanding tax credits for adoption and children.
Carly has called for a two-year payroll tax holiday to give small businesses and start-ups an incentive to hire unemployed workers.
Boxer has repeatedly supported higher taxes on small businesses and entrepreneurs, inhibiting them from growing and succeeding.
Carly believes government can best support economic growth by getting out of the way of small businesses and entrepreneurs that are trying to grow and hire.
Boxer voted for an $862 billion big-government stimulus plan that cost taxpayers money; but since its passage, California has lost hundreds of thousands of jobs.
Carly has proposed creating “Jobs for Americans” Zones that will help lure manufacturing jobs back to America through targeted, substantial federal tax benefits.
Boxer has supported increasing regulations on American companies, making it harder for them to do business in the United States and driving jobs overseas.
Carly opposes the largest tax increase in American history scheduled to go into effect January 2011. This tax increase will cost the average middle-income family in California more than $1,600 every year.
Boxer supports this tax increase and has made no proposal as a U.S. senator to ensure it does not go into effect.

Barbara Boxer vs. Carly Fiorina Debate Part 1
This video is the first part of the debate between Senator Barbara Boxer and opponent Carly Fiorina. Boxer is a 3 term senator who served in the house of Representatives beforehand, and was the first to set up after school programs for children and for veterans the first ever casualty care center in California. Fiorina believes under Boxer the country will continue to fall downhill. She believes in small business tax relief, which Boxer has voted against every time it has been proposed. However Boxer was one of twenty-three who didn't vote for the war in Afghanistan, she believes in helping a nation, not rebuilding it. She also believes that teaching jobs shouldn't be cut, and that teachers should be in the classroom teaching our children, and Fiorina agrees.
