The DNC delegates speak to Tim Carney and here's what they say: It really is the economy, stupid.

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Tim Carney will be helping us keep up with what's going on this week - he's the editor of the Evans-Novak Political Report, where he had served under Robert Novak for four years before Novak's retirement this summer. Tim is also a columnist for the Washington Examiner. His 2006 book, The Big Ripoff: How Big Business and Big Government Steal Your Money (Wiley) won the Lysander Spooner Award for Best Book on Liberty. More importantly, he still plays hardball - real, not political - as a catcher and outfielder in a D.C. men's league.
Today Tim went down to floor to take the pulse of the delegates. Four years ago Iraq was big and social issues - abortion, gay rights, etc. - were on the radar, but not so now. Apparently, times are tough out there and that's the No. 1 concern on their minds.
