On today’s podcast we’ve lined up several of the top stories of the week. First we’ll unpack President Biden’s State of the Union address. Did he do anything to put the country at ease over the invasion of Ukraine and help his own job approval numbers? Next, the crisis in Ukraine – does hope spring…
Today on the podcast we’ll start with another key Senate race in Arizona that’s rated as a toss-up. Arizona is a large state, a growing state and perhaps most importantly a swing state. On the Democratic side, Mark Kelly is currently running for his first full-term while the Republicans have multiple candidates seeking the nomination…
Today on the podcast we’ll continue our look at the top Senate races in the country. The stakes as always are very high. Last week, we talked about the tight Senate Republican Primary – Dr. Oz is now the front-runner and leading by double digits. But our main story today is Georgia. There are no…
Today on the podcast we’ll start by talking about the issue of food insecurity in this country. Back when we first polled on this issue in the 80s the numbers were already alarming.

President Biden’s approval rating is now in the low 40s or high 30s depending on the poll. This begs the question Washington loves to ask – “How bleak are the Democrats’ prospects for the November elections?” If we take a look at Biden, with the exception of Trump, his polls are the lowest numbers since…
