The freight train is coming.
Yet, no one on the Democratic side can hear it yet.
What is it?
The 2010 Census.
Well, not the people coming to knock on your door, but the redistricting that will have to occur because of it.
And, no matter what way you slice it, even the crafty [...]]]></description>

And, I came away with one simple question.

		<description><![CDATA[.!.
Paul Nyden had a article in the Sunday Gazette-Mail about how Sedgewick (the folks handling the Old Fund Workers&#8217; Comp claims) is denying some Workers&#8217; Comp recipients disability benefits.

    Sadly, it was about three years too late.
But, the union leaders&#8217; comments in the Sunday Gazette-Mail were priceless.
