Since when does North Carolina lean economic libertarian?  All of their Republicans opposed CAFTA.

Neither does California, we have the best workplace safety laws in the country, there are more workplace safety prosecutions in California than the other 49 states combined.

I'd say Ensworth gets Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Montana. Jake wins the rest.

Probably Jake/Emsworth but it might as well be Emsworth/Emsworth

We had at least one vote for it.  He decided the whole thing.

I think 2 of them (Hayes [the decider] and Myrick) voted for it.  NC was also protecting it's sugar industry with the vote.

Emsworth/Emsworth

People support a minimum wage, yes, but they don't care about it.

CAFTA was certainly a terrible piece of legislation, except that it was better than nothing.

Emsworth/Emsworth.  This race would make some great debates.  Emsworth gets my vote, I'm not sure if he'd win or not, but I think he would.

Yes, I always found that a little odd. The amount of sugar that is allowed to come in from Central America will be equal to less than one-third of one percent of what American sugar industries produce.

One of these clowns is an extremist who opposes a minimum wage (86% of Americans support increasing it)...
86% of Americans do not care about the Constitution (see the quotation in my sig.)

Thats assuming that those 86% were referring to increasing the federal minimum wage. Certainly some (and had I been a respondent to this survey, this would have been my response) would have wished to see a rise in the minimum wage instituted by the State (or municipality) governments, which is of course completely constitutional.

Emsworth. Some of Jake's positions are rather strange and whilst I will not accuse him of being a fascist, like many people due rather unjustly, I will say that he is rather authoritarian in his political views.

That's about right.

Emsworth because he is more sound, not partisan politics.  I of course agree with Jake more economically, but some stuff he has said in the past troubles me.
