Hey lord.

I suck at the technical aspect, but your site's layout seems ok

A couple content points:

I don't really think Biden is a top tier candidate, he has no shot. I would replace him with New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson. Richardson, Clinton, Obama and Edwards represent the top tier of the Democratic field.

I don't have as good a handle on the GOP field, because there is no strong candidate with good conservative credentials. For now, I would add Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee who announced over the weekend.

And don't forget to add links to the campaign websites.

So I should make the ad border the same as the background then?

iron,

Thanks for your input. I agree about Biden and will change that soon. I am sort of just getting started on the content and will be adding more candidates soon but I'll start with Richardson and Huckabee.
Links are coming soon as well.

Does anyone think I soon have separate pages for each candidate or is the way I have it now ok?

Also when you click on rep or dem the content shows up way too far down the page. It should be at the top. You have blank space that looks like the page didnt load.

Looks good though, I think you did a great job

It happens in IE for me. Works fine in FF.

You definitely need to blend your ads a little better.

Since you picked a topic that would need updating regularly, is there any reason why you didn't just go with a blog format? It seems perfect for a blog site.

There is news every day that you can write about, while adding your own point of view. Plus, it would be an easy way for visitors to post their own comments.

Just a thought.
