Does any of this really matter?
On April 18, 2006, Palin and I sat together in a hotel coffee shop comparing campaign trail notes. As we talked about the debates, Palin made a comment that highlights the phenomenon that Biden is up against.
“Andrew, I watch you at these debates with no notes, no papers, and yet when asked questions, you spout off facts, figures, and policies, and I’m amazed. But then I look out into the audience and I ask myself, ‘Does any of this really matter?’ ” Palin said.
Former Alaskan State Rep and gubernatorial candidate Andrew Halcro offers his take on the headache Joe Biden may be facing Thursday night. This is a war for the minds of stupid people, on both sides; don’t forget that.

Link Building is Hard
Link building is hard. I think it is the hardest part of a successful internet marketing strategy.
I wrote a few new articles on link building on the HubSpot blog. The first one talks about how to construct a good inbound link and why link building is so important. The second one talks about what methods to use to build inbound links to your site. Both articles link to a lot of other authoritative articles about blogging written by other bloggers. The first article has a lot of great comments from HubSpot blog readers who shared some link building success stories and ideas.

The plan’s defeat helped send stocks plummeting yesterday afternoon, with the Dow Jones shedding nearly 7 percent of its value.

Coffee column clearly was tongue-in-cheek
This is in regard to a letter to the editor published (Sunday Telegram, Sept. 21), commenting on a light-hearted column by Laura Porter concerning choices of ordering coffee in a diner. The letter writer should lighten up. This was clearly a tongue-in-cheek observation on how complicated life choices are getting. It was, I am sure, never meant to be a political commentary or political statement. We are all aware of, and appreciate, the many freedoms we have in this country, including the right t

Creative-thinking candidates are needed
I’m disappointed in the Worcester City Council and the city manager. How dare they pull off big raises for themselves and the manager’s cabinet. Even the two councilors who didn’t take the raises voted for them. Why? Alleged health care reform voiced by this body has resulted in making retirees the cash cow for the city. This so-called reform allowed the City Council to balance the budget from the cash cow.

‘Yes’ on Question 1 targets excess, greed
I read an editorial, “D.C pigout” (Sunday Telegram, Sept. 14) with great interest. Our refrigerator has various articles of inspiration, things to do and places to go. It now is also adorned with the editorial.
