@repjustinamash True. But on the radio, your supporters sounded obtuse (that woman screaming about Obama). U can raise the level of convo. -
@SteveCotner Who are my supporters? Some ppl like me & like Obama. Others like me & dislike Obama. If you were there, you probably saw that. -

@repjustinamash It seems what they have in common is fear. Can u help instill respect for good governance, even with ur policy differences? -
@SteveCotner Some fear is healthy right now. The debt problem is monumental & not solvable w/o public pressure on both sides. -

@repjustinamash Our long-term economic viability (education, research, job recovery) will help more than quick cuts. Build, don't destroy. -
@SteveCotner Unfortunately, the budget problem is now far too big to overcome through economic growth. It helps but won't get us close. -

@repjustinamash Economy is still a half-sick patient because of half-hearted stimulus. After real recovery, we'd stand austerity better.
