The 63,62, 61% are a statistical wash.

Stated in the details by Pew are that the margin of error is 2.2 for the total number of ca 3700+.

I hope he has backup career choice. -

The hiring of Jose Diaz-Balart to be a regular host on MSNBC should be a

good move for that network.

Having been on Telemundo for a number of years, he is well-known among Hispanic viewers, and he brings a knowledge of Latin-American culture and affairs that most Anglo- and African- Americans cannot even begin to approach. His English is flawless, and he can translate while hearing Spanish spoken by his interviewees.

I have seen him now and again on English-speaking networks and believe he has much credibility in his reporting and opinions.

If they hadn't applauded on that day in 2009 when he first ranted, perhaps we wouldn't have the tea party.
At the very least, we wouldn't have Rick Santelli spouting off his political opinions regularly, as if anyone should care about his political opinions.

I happened to catch that outburst this morning, and quickly moved on. The Price Is Right is far preferable to Rick Santelli on CNBC.
Thank goodness Steve Liesman is around to lend some common sense to the day's financial proceedings.

Make sure you're charging enough for your services.

It might be time to bump up the fees a little.

It's hard to fathom that just about 5-6 years ago

Kansas had a Democratic governor, Kathleen Sebelius.
