Slog - Comments on Reactions from the Floor http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/reactions_from_the_floor The guy next to me during the speech (who wasn't a delegate, just a guy): "It was... good. Shorter would've been better." Josh McGrail of Ft. Meyers, Florida on McCain's tepid style: "Fantastic. A lot of people would say that Obama's got a great speaking style and a deep voice and John McCain has a more subdued approach. That's who he is." Todd Porter of North Dakota on McCain's swipes at the Republicans: "It was... very good. He wasn't swiping at Bush. But there has been failure in the Republican party and failure in Washington." Really? He wasn't swiping...

White: No, I think global warming is a scam. I think it's a scam to put taxes -- more taxes on us, and it's called carbon taxes. Our environment has never been so clean, and if we want to push global warming, let's push it on China, where the smog is so thick that you almost need a helmet to breathe. Let's push it on Africa and see how they adapt to it, because they're not going to.

Like most of policy portion of the speech it was fairly muddled, but it sounded to me like if you lost a good paying job, and got a lesser paying job, the Federal govt. would subsidize the pay difference and get you retrained for some job that supposedly could never be outsourced?

Did I hear that right? What does that even mean?

Thanks for any info on that.
