Political Campaigning (Thursday, February 2, 4th period)
Josh was still a little distracted by the continuing coverage of the State of the Union and kept glancing at his copy of the speech transcript and frowning.
"Okay. Tuesday night's speech pretty much gives you a blueprint of the issues that the Republicans will be running on this year: Iraq, terrorism, education, health care, permanent tax cuts, and, apparently, banning human-animal hybrids." Josh rolled his eyes. "Maybe that's a huge issue in Montana or something."
He smacked the top of his desk. "Except for not. Today we talk about local issues."
He pointed at the stack of newspapers on his desk. "Some of the big things in Montana right now: the Abramhoff scandal--bad news for the Burns people--Iraq, farming issues, snow mobiles--learn to care about that--, wolves potentially coming off the endangered list, unemployment rates on the reservations."
He waved his hands at the class. "Discuss among yourselves. Which national issues will you take from the Republican platform, if you're working for Burns, or work to counter, if you're Morrison and Tester? Learn about wolves." He gave an evil smile. "Extra credit will be given to anyone who asks CJ Cregg about Plumie." He sat back down. "Divide into your usual groups." He snapped his fingers. "Oh, um, Donna--" he pointed at Jake--"how many days until the election?"
