but I couldn't find a single item of substance. I'm biased against conservative views for sure, but I'd still like to think I could say "you have a point there" if there was such a point.

One problem with the speech was that it didn't set out any new ground. Biden's speech presented the possibiliity of a country that could help the working class, people without degrees who have had a tough time over the past couple decades. Nobody's offered this group anything but there is a place for them to rebuild a new energy structure and work on highways, tunnels, etc., not to mention adequate coverage of internet for the entire country.

I don't see what Scott presented other than to scorn "Democratic wish lists." Like we should leave the tax structure the way it is and not spend any money on people but let rich people skate on taxes. That is not a winning proposition.
