Revised my platform a bit. Feel free to factor it in:

//Abortion

Pro-choice but okay with certain restrictions (e.g. partial birth). No litmus tests on this issue.

//Balanced Budget

A large decrease in federal spending. A Balanced Budget Amendment to ensure responsible fiscal management.

//Business Tax

Moderate decrease in business taxation. Current rates put us at a competitive disadvantage; help small business.

//Education

Eliminate No Child Left Behind. Increase Teacher Salaries in exchange for less job security. Some vouchers; Charter schools provide competition.

//Energy

Invest in alternative energy including Nuclear Power and end oil company subsidies. Allow ANWR drilling and local offshore drilling. Cut oil use significantly by 2025.

//Environment

Work to reduce emissions and harmful toxins. Modified Kyoto.

//Gun Control

Gun control is a state issue. No federal gun control.

//Health Care

Universal health care whether public or private. Require health insurance for every child.

//Homeland Security

We must defend ourselves only if attacked. Increase some security, funding for natural disasters. Oppose Patriot Act, it erodes our rights and freedoms (e.g. probable cause).

//Immigration

Illegal immigration is a serious problem. Tighter border security, including a wall and fines. Reform immigration laws.

//Iran

Diplomacy and carrot-and-stick economic approach is key. No military action, offer trade liberalization if they comply.

//Iraq War

Begin pulling out troops gradually. Partition Iraq.

//Trade

Reform NAFTA. End tax incentives for companies sending jobs overseas, encourage investment here.

//Personal Tax

Repeal Bush Tax Cuts for wealthy to balance the budget.

//Same Sex Marriage

This issue is being used by the far right as a scare tactic and distraction from their agenda. It is going to be decided by the courts and states, not the President.

//Social Security

Cut social security benefits for the well off. Keep congress from raiding the trust fund.  Promote personal savings for all.

//Unions

Labor demands must be balanced with business concerns.

//War on Terror

We must focus on Al Qaeda, the War in Iraq is a distraction.

Gov. Vince Pilar is doing some last minute barnstorming in New York, since the polls still seem to be open.

[NDN]

I must say, doing the Republicans is hard. Which states go for the gay and which for the atheist?

The west has a higher concentration of atheists/non-religious people than anywhere else. So Fezzy would probably fare better there.

But the South?

The south and mid-west are probably a toss up and/or full of write ins. Afleitch wins the northeast.
