Now that a major bridge has collapsed will the presidential candidates begin to warm to the idea of promoting infrastructure as an issue? We know how they search for whatever topics will resonate with the public -- this public or that public -- they slice us up to get votes for themselves.
Who will bite this issue now that it is in the public awareness?
Interestingly we do have two senators who were very concerned about various US infrastructure needs before the tragedy. They are Chuck Hagel and Joe Biden. It may be time to add some hats for Mr. Biden over at www.candidatestuff.com. We shouldn't count these two out of the presidential race. At this time in the last presidential election cycle the "unbeatable" front runner was Howard Dean!
