Republicans need to come to grips with the fact that most people in America live in urban areas and address the issues that those Americans face on a daily basis. Until that happens they will continue to lose and with good reason.

In 2013, Ford is bringing us an all-new Transit Connect and this time a fully equipped people hauler variant will join the cargo van. The new TC will be available in two wheelbase lengths with seating for five or seven passengers. With the new EcoBoost four cylinder, it's even expected to get over 30 mpg highway. With the second and third row seats folded down, the long wheelbase version can swallow more than 100 cubic feet of cargo weighing up to 1,200 pounds. That means you can load up an entire roomful of flat-pack furniture in just one trip to IKEA.

By today's standards, the SHO's 220 hp output is nothing to excited about but in 1989 it was a wonder.  Unfortunately, like the Esprit, the SHO had a fragile gearbox as well, this one sourced from Mazda. This Esprit has mated the V6 with a Porsche gearbox so it should be a lot more durable.

Why there is zero chance that my next pizza order will be with Papa Johns; CEO cutting workers to avoid health care.

I suspect many of the more extremist Christian members of National Organization for Marriage would just as soon see all Muslims eradicated as cooperate with them. However, that isn't stopping NOM from trying to co-opt the corresponding bigotry of many of the more reactionary folks in the Islamic world to try to hurt companies that support same-sex marriage in the US including Starbucks. 

Frankly I'd like to see a list of companies that provide support to NOM so I can avoid doing business with them.
