The beef:

About Compellent:
Compellent is a leading provider of enterprise-class network storage solutions that are highly scalable, feature-rich and designed to be easy to use and cost effective. A fairly new company with revolutionary technology (virtual storage aka "thin previsioning") they might get swallowed up by EMC^2 in a distant future. In fact I have personally witnessed 3 customers of ours make the switch from EMC to COMPELLENT - better technology at half the cost of EMC^2 -just a matter of time before companies catch on. The stock has dropped a bit since it IPO'd but nonetheless at 8 and change it is a great buy, guaranteed to climb.

Senator Arlen Specter
" The integrity of football is very important "
on CNN 02/03/08
Last time I checked this man was assigned with the task of covering up the assassination of JFK.
Mr. Specter, yes the SAME SENATOR we have seen across TV arguing with NFL commissioner about Football, is the SAME PERSON behind the "single bullet theory" -- " which suggested the non-fatal wounds to President Kennedy and Texas Governor John Connally were caused by the same bullet. This was a crucial assertion for the Warren Commission, since if the two had been wounded by separate bullets, that would have demonstrated the presence of a second assassin and therefore a conspiracy. " [wikipedia] -But As we all know now.. there was more than one shooter!!
Anyhoo -- Here we have a man who amended Patriot Act to allow the Bush Administration to appoint interim U.S. attorneys without term limits, and without confirmation by the Senate. The Bush administration used the law to place at least eight interim attorneys into office in 2006 which as we all know lead to the U.S. Attorneys scandal.
Just your typical lawyer turned a corrupt Senior senator !!!
Mr. Specter, what is truly important are the issues we as a nation are facing, not some football game!, why don't you worry about that instead. ? Makes you wonder why all of the sudden he's so invested in the NFL Scandal and whose payroll he's on ...

A+ for Hillary & Obama on Education
from Hillary's website --
" Make college affordable. Hillary will detail a plan for making college affordable for all Americans. Her plan will include modernizing the HOPE Scholarship Program that provides tax credits to help young people attend college. As President, Hillary will also provide more support for community colleges and institutions that prepare people for good jobs. "
Many comm colleges are in desperate need extra cash.. and a well prepared workforce will drive our economy alright, but lets remember we need companies to hire those folks!! otherwise we have tons of educated people sitting around and not enough jobs.. but right now the opp is true, so seems a step in the right direction..
Hillary was chair of the Arkansas Edu Standard Committee.
Obama joined a House Edu Committee in November of 06
" He promises to bring student aid issues to the forefront [....] He has unveiled an ambitious $18 billion plan to expand public education from pre-school through 12th grade [...] "
Obama has introduced the HOPE Act. (his first bill) which increased maximum Pell Grant from $4050 to $5100.. Not much, if you asked me, to make a significant difference. But a good effort nonetheless for it is a great cause. He also introduced legislation to create Teacher Residency Programs and to increase federal support for summer learning opportunities.
Another program he's working on is the American Opportunity Tax Credit - "This universal and fully refundable credit will ensure that the first $4,000 of a college education is completely free for most Americans ..." combined with the HOPE ACT, thats around 10k.

What Hillary Wants --
Create a new $3,500 college tax credit.
Increase to $10,000 the college scholarship for those who participate in AmeriCorps full-time for one year.
Invest $100 million in a new public/private summer internship program.

Equal points to both candidates for being passionate advocates for improving education, unlike Bush who pretended to be reading to children when 9/11 hit. I swear to God someone needs to hold this guy accountable.
