The Gazette urges focusing on how money is allocated and spent in Iowa public schools. It cites high K 12 costs, teacher pay shortfalls, and reliance on aging textbooks while calling for efficiency, consolidation, and policy change to protect education funding and outcomes.
The piece notes veterans like James Rassmann boosting John Kerry in the race, portraying Kerry as a Vietnam veteran turned senator who can appeal to veterans in the South. It discusses Edwards and Dean rivals, Bush administration anger, and the need for Kerry to pivot from liberal labels to a centrist stance.
Bill Ferguson argues that 2004 offers no clear fiscal conservative champion as deficits soar to a record and Bush policies face critique. He faulted deficits, veto inaction, and party dynamics while warning of future Social Security and Medicare costs and the political impasse among Republicans and Democrats.
