Particularly in the Deep South — the Alabama South — the region is solidly Republican, from local courthouses all the way to Washington. Regardless of ideology, candidates with a "D" alongside their names on the ballot automatically face a tough task on election day. Here, one-party politics is secure.
But Election Day winds are changing in the South, just as they did during Reconstruction, just as they did in the 1960s, and just as they did a few years ago when Republicans won control of more than a few historically Democratic Southern legislatures.
It's not a new story, mind you. Changing national demographics and the 2008 election of President Barack Obama showed how far the United States had moved toward a diversified nation of whites, blacks and Latinos. Young voters proved they could make a difference. And Texas, with its 38 electoral votes and ever-growing population of immigrants, became journalists' first choice when trying to illustrate how a state in the Republican South could become open to Democratic candidates, especially for all-important congressional offices.
This week, the American Prospect magazine kicked off a four-part series on what it calls "The End of the Solid South." Again, that's not a new journalistic concept. But the magazine does bring up several pertinent points, not the least of which is the premise that the next few election years — 2014, 2016, etc. — are mere stepping stones for the real years of political change.
It's not a matter of if there will be change, but when.
"In the South's new battlegrounds," the magazine wrote, "2020 shapes up as a pivotal year. If Democrats have gathered enough strength by then to send majorities to Richmond, Raleigh, Atlanta, Tallahassee, and/or Austin, they can tear up the Republican maps from 2011 and make it dauntingly difficult for the GOP to regain its majorities."
In some ways, states that have large immigrant voting blocs such as Texas and Florida aren't wholly comparable to our political fortunes here in Alabama, where the Latino population isn't large. But therein lies the two sides of the Republicans' problem in keeping the South solidly theirs during national elections: without broader appeal to Latino voters, black voters and younger voters, the GOP faces a future in which Republican-strong states like Alabama are fewer in number and weaker in strength.
The American Prospect said that "the Solid South is dead." That's too harsh for 2013; the Republican Party's grasp in the Deep South states, at least, is imposing. Even the magazine admits that "Republicans won't give up easily," nor should they.
Yet, we agree with American Prospect when it posits that the Solid South is changing, and that a return to two-party politics is on the way. Southern states "are building for a demographic future that Republicans dread: the time when overwhelming white support will no longer be enough to win a statewide election in Texas and Georgia."
That overwhelming white support may continue to rule Election Day in Alabama, but much of the South is already glimpsing these soon-to-arrive changes.

An Essential for Sugar-Free Baking!
5 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer3065264 From New York on Jan 24, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
I follow the South Beach Diet, so I make my baked goods with whole-wheat flour and without sugar. This can lead to some problems, one of which is extremely dense items. MoreFiber fixes that problem beautifully, while sweetening without an effect on blood sugar. You add MoreFiber in place of sugar in a recipe (it has Stevia in it, so it's sweet), but it also has a ton of fiber, so it helps reduce the need for fat, makes things gel better (something sugar does well but sugar-free sweeteners usually do not do), and adds lots of healthy fiber. Best of all, this measures tablespoon for tablespoon the same as sugar. Trying to figure out measurements for stevia can be very difficult, but this makes it easy! I cannot recommend this product enough, and the price here at iHerb is phenomenal!
Great alternative to sugar!

I used it in my coconut flour muffins and it was great! It adds more texture to the batter. I substituted 1 Tbs for 1 Tbs sugar. Very good price too. Click on my username for more reviews! If you thought that this review was helpful please feel free to press the 'yes' button.
I love this just as much as the NuStevia White Stevia Pure Extract!

This is a great product!!! I tried NuStevia White Stevia Pure Extract to make the simple 2-step cheesecake that is or used to be printed on the inside of the Philadelphia cream cheese box 2 times, but each time it had a bitter aftertaste. I decided to try again using More Fiber, Stevia Baking Blend and the cheesecake turned out delicious! Another NuNaturals winner!!!

The taste is great! I made a cake of butter. I'm not allowed to eat suger. Instead of sugar I use this and it works. The cake was some dryer as if you use normal sugar, but the taste was great. For sure there will always be a box of this in my kitchen to make healthy cookies.

The Mission grounds and the two basilicas it contains are beautiful. The grounds are lovingly cared for, and there are inscriptions in appointed places to inform you what was used for what, and tiled religious icons throughout the gardens.
There needs to be a foot note here however, that since visiting the mission in San Antonio, I've come away with the certainty that these enclaves were more like prisons than anything else. It seemed that conversion to Christianity was not a mere option, therefore, despite the beauty of the San Carlos Borromeo Mission, which became the center of religious control, I have certain reservations about this whole system.
"We observed with concern that the resemblance is so perfect that we saw both men and women in irons, others in the stocks. Lastly, the noise of the whip might have struck our ears, this punishment also being administered...although, with little severity"-
1786 observation by Comte Jean Francois de la Perouse of France.
The Church itself, the oldest of the buildings, is still in use today, and when we entered, we saw behind iron gates the baptismal bath (Chuck explained this to me); in the center a few feet from the main entrance, was another sort of free standing water basin where holy water is still held. The interior ceiling architecture is quite elaborate and ornate; in one of the apses, is a very beautiful nativity scene.
Along one of the long walls of the mission are the school rooms; on the other is the museum itself where things are preserved remarkably well including a pair of sandals. The kitchen area with its giant pots and garlic strands; a wheelbarrow, the library which is behind a sealed glass door; the sleeping quarters which are reminiscent of jail cells, bare as they are with narrow beds.
Outside, there are some large and small fountains, but in the center of the courtyard is a large fountain with the original mosaic tile intact. Wooden benches are found in shaded areas of the gardens where native cacti and flora abound.
There is an enforced $3 donation at the door, where you'll receive a written aid to your self-guided tour.

Oguchi Onyewu4 of 12
This Team USA scorcher recently lent his good looks to a sizzling GQ spread and currently plays for Milan. He's also a guy with integrity: He sued an opponent who used a racial slur, in the hopes that it would end on-field racism in Europe.
Cesc Fabregas5 of 12
Hitting the field for Team Spain, there's currently a bidding war between Real Madrid and Barcelona over this 23-year-old stunner — so, ladies, you'll unfortunately have to get in line.

Didier Drogba6 of 12
Although a freshly broken arm might mean he's sitting out this Cup, Didier has just as much influence off the field as he does on it. Named one of Time's most influential people in the world, Didier, 32, gets credit for uniting the civil war-torn Cote d'Ivoire.
Benny Feilhaber7 of 12
Born in Brazil, Benny was six when he moved to the USA (the team for which he'll play in the Cup). When he's off the field, this 25-year-old has been known to star — shirtless — in random YouTube videos.

Cristiano Ronaldo8 of 12
Team Portugal's 25-year-old playboy is the highest paid footballer in the world. And he looks good — real good — in Armani underwear, as evidenced by his drool-worthy ad campaign. Not surprisingly, the ladies love him, including famous ones like Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian.
Lionel Messi9 of 12
Lionel is a player to watch, and not just for his cute looks. The young player (he's just 22!) is considered one of the best soccer players of his generation. And he'll be playing for Argentina this World Cup.
Mario Gomez10 of 12
Although Mario has dual Spanish nationality, this 24-year-old was named Footballer Of The Year by the country he plays for — Germany. That worked out well, since Spain already has enough eye candy.
Fabio Cannavaro11 of 12
Even though this Fabio doesn't have the luscious locks often associated with that name, he's still quite the looker. As the captain of the Italian team, the 36-year-old won the FIFA World Player of the Year award when his team won the last World Cup in 2006.
Carlos Bocanegra12 of 12
Although he's currently playing in France, this 31-year-old stud muffin is originally from California and of Mexican decent. For the World Cup this year, Carlos will serve as Team USA's proud captian.

Check out this stunning set of BMW M235i wallpapers!
We have added the first videos of the BMW M235i 2 Series Coupe to our Official Thread.
Introducing the first ever BMW M235i and 228i Coupe.
Inside you'll find the official release information for the new BMW 2 Series Coupe (F22), with full specs, press release, photos and video.
The 2014 M235i and 228i have been priced in the U.S. starting at $44,025 and $33,025, respectively.
Even more photos have been posted of the BMW M235i coupe ahead of its official reveal on Friday (German time).
This time we get a glance at its interior as well as the rear design.
Here are the first photos of the BMW M235i Coupe which is currently making its rounds at dealers across the U.S.
The official reveal for the M235i and 2 Series Coupe will come later this week – October 25th (German time).
The first ever BMW 2 Series Coupe will be presented on Oct. 25th. Here is a teaser for the M235i coupe.
Months ago we uncovered much of the M235i by way of a set of very revealing photos (reposted below), but we now show you some more unique looks.
The first image shows the M235i bumper (on the left) compared to the standard 2 Series bumper (on the right). The 2 Series bumper is the same as the one spotted on the standard 2 Series prototype we showed you last week. Both designs look very sporty to us. The image also gives a great top-down look at the M235i and highlights how short its overhangs and tail end are.
Next up is the first look at the M235i's undercarriage and shows us that like the M135i, it is not equipped with a limited slip differential (LSD) as … CONTINUED
As our newest photos show, the 2 Series Coupe (F22) sure has grown up from the current 1 Series Coupe (E82). The 3.1 inch gain in overall length and 1.2 inch longer wheelbase (see dimension/specs comparisons) appears to come mostly in the front, elongating the front end and giving the F22 a sleeker look overall. Adding to this effect is the less bulbous greenhouse which features a more raked window and a rear roofline that has been elongated and joins the trunk on a more subtle angle than on the E82.
Production on the 2 Series begins next month and it will have its public auto show debut at the Detroit auto show in mid-January.
The 2 Series Coupe will be officially revealed imminently, so stay tuned. … CONTINUED
Now that the BMW M235i specs have been revealed, we take a look at how they compare on paper to the M135i hatchback, 435i coupe, 135is and E46 M3. All in all, its specs are very encouraging for those of us clamoring for a return of a E46-type sports coupe/sedan.

A little while ago I had a friend add a new top to a bench I found on craigslist.
I wish I had the before, but of course, I forgot to snap a photo. It had dark wood legs and a avocado green upholstered top.
I ended up painting the frame with Annie Sloan Old White paint.
Then the top was recovered in gray curtains from Ikea.
I LOVE the deep tufting!
It now sits behind our sectional and is a great place to sit and put shoes on, or read a book.
Or, as you can see here, a good place for the puppy to take a nap!
Just a reminder that today is the last day to enter the Kathy Kaehler Sunday Set up giveaway hosted by Janette Mallory!

I will announce the winner tomorrow.

100% of customers would recommend this product to a friend (7 out of 7)
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Cette pince est vraiment très pratique. Elle est solide et de bonne qualité. Je la recommande a tous ceux qui ont besoin de plier, couper, tordre etc des petites choses.
Cons: Cependant, la partie coupante s'avoue un peu vite vaincu sur des câbles de section un peu plus importante, mais bon ce n'est pas la fonction principale.
Other: Bonne utilisation
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: #exellent build quality
#shipped lighty lubbed and arrives without surfece rust
#works smooth
i use them for arts and crafts im a designer and thay
work perfactly for me ive used them for works that are not realy meant for them and thay didnt get any damage really good pliers
Cons: non so far and probably forever
Other: bottomline ? get one !! you wont regret it !
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: For less the £2 including delivery they are very well made. Perfect for lightweight electronics use. Points close together very precisely Cutter also sharp, with no visible gap on mine Good finish Good grade metal with no sign of rust on mine. Not covered in oil and rusting like budget pliers sold in the UK
Cons: None at this price
Other: If you want a set of cheap pliers that represent very good value for money, look no further... It is always amazes me how DX manage to produce/purchase these items, package, label and ship for such low prices. I doubt I could even post this item in the UK for this price! DXDXDXDXDXDXDXDX
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very cheap and well build pliers. Both parts fit perfectly together
They come in a decent package (as shown in the pictures), which makes them appropriate as a gift too.
They look sturdier than I expected for this price.
Easy to use, since there's a spring that automatically opens the pliers.
Also useable to cut wires.
Cons: None
Other: Buy these if you don't have pliers already. It will certainly be useful!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Definitely has a sturdy build! Everything clasps perfectly, the tip and the inner cutting part connects amazingly well. Good grip and it's of a handy size for most small stuff (I use it for fishing, hooks and such)
Cons: There aren't really any cons to speak of, except I'm not 100% satisfied with the pattern on the inside of the tip but it's not been a problem actually.
Other: I couldn't find a better at a local ironmonger which truly surprised me at this price. It's good.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: They are small, much more than you'll expect, so they are ideal for small tool boxes.
Made of steel, and look strong
they have something like a "spring" mechanism to keep them opened until you make force.
Cons: They don't close perfectly, and there's always a bit of space betwen the nose parts.
The cutter doesn't fit perfectly too, but i've found it perfect to peel AWG30 wires, because it doesn't damage the wire. So it will be a pro
They came with a bit of something like rust, but it was easily removed and the steel seems undamaged
Other: They are cheap and look good, so why don't buy them?
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Good build quality Useful
Cons: Small size as described
Other: You can't go wrong with these.

I had won lunch on a silent auction with our Fort Wayne City Mayor Tom Henry on Jan. lucky 13th day. What a way to start the new year!
The money from the silent auction went to the Larry King Heart Foundation. Tom and I are both Military Veterans, he is really a great person to meet, and hopefully make all the necessary changes needed in our city. We just talked about how so many jobs have been lost and how people are really struggling right now. He is very aware and sad about it, yet knows we will make a recovery. When I say we that means we all need to look for a brighter tomorrow and not allow the crime to happen in the streets, and pointing fingers at others.
I can tell you with all of his phone calls,appointments and the concerns by the people every day. Tom Henry is doing the best anyone could do and exceeding our expectations of him. I hope everyone who meets him will shake his hand, and give him support as I did. Fort Wayne does have room for dreams.

I think Mayor Henry is doing a fine job, and should be re-elected. Having a brother who is a successful local industrialist is also helpful. like the Clintons- a great 2 for one deal. jeers to mitch Harer for trying to impugn our Mayors integrity.

Research in Focus - Rum Sector Reaping the Premiumisation Dividend
Following the trends seen in categories such as vodka and Tequila, rum marketers are optimistic about the potential for premium and super-premium rums. A new just-drinks/IWSR report suggests with good reason.
RUSSIA: Russian Standard volumes rise in 2010
Russian Standard will spend up to US$10m to upgrade its newly-acquired Buinsky Spirit Distillery as it looks to build on a rise in volume sales in 2010.
Comment - So, what is Pernod Ricard's position on M&A?
Is it a case of cultural differences, or is Pernod Ricard playing a bit coy on its attitude to mergers and acquisitions?

Their sheer defiance of the rule of law and their ability to make up the laws as they go is staggering. The Supreme Court had to be desperate to use a law written in 1899 to overturn a judge and an appeals court unanimous decision to deny a search warrant for the attorney general's office.
The rule of law in Alabama doesn't seem to apply to our elected officials. Where there is no law, there is no justice, at least for private citizens.

MMQB (cont.)
"I think the kid is a good working back, and if you've got everything else around him he can play his role. But when it comes to outstanding, I don't see anything outstanding about him. It's not said in a cruel manner ... But here's the deal: He can change everything I've said.''
-- Jim Brown, in an interview with longtime Browns beat man Tony Grossi, now with ESPN Cleveland. Excellent job by Grossi, my fellow Ohio U. Bobcat classmate 35 years ago, as this byplay with Brown shows:
Grossi: "Browns fans believe you're a bitter man and that's why you're saying these things about [first-round draft pick Trent] Richardson."
Brown: "That's so petty and so ridiculous. Anyone that thinks that I'm a guy that goes around bashing anybody ... I [criticized] a lot of people in my career ... I talked about Tiger Woods [before his scandal] and challenged him, and O.J. [Simpson], because of certain hypocrisy. But the Browns speak for themselves. What have I said about the Browns other than the fact that Richardson is an ordinary back? There's so much I could say. So you tell all those people that want to look at me, look at what you've got. You're sitting on a mess. You've got a guy that doesn't give interviews except in other cities. I ask all the people in Cleveland, do you get the impression that Mr. [Mike] Holmgren wants to be there? If you do, then tell me."
Doesn't sound like Holmgren -- who chose to end the team's formal, compensated relationship with Brown two years ago -- and the legendary running back will be smoking the peace pipe anytime soon.
-- Tim Tebow, asked when the last time he'd made a special teams tackle. Tebow could be used as the personal protector -- the up back -- on the Jets' punt team.
I've written about Peyton Manning's foundation before, but I think this is worth repeating: Manning's PeyBack Foundation gives out about $500,000 per year, in scores of chunks (88 recipients this year) to agencies in Indiana, Tennessee and Louisiana. Five of the foundation's beneficiaries this year:

I mentioned the other day on SI.com that Greg Schiano was a -- shall we say -- quirky and very particular head coach at Rutgers, and that during team meetings at road hotels, the temperature in the meeting rooms had to be at a precise number.
Come to find out now that once, at a Scarlet Knights team dinner, the food service people got upbraided by a Rutgers staffer because the pasta being served was the wrong noodle.
Wished I had Aladdin's Lamp on my return flight from London last Monday, so I could have wished that the fellow sitting across the aisle who took his shoes and socks off before we took off had actually washed his feet some time in the previous three days. Nothing like the look of dark-gray crossed feet every few minutes for seven hours.
Three other England thoughts:
1. It's entirely possible that I slept so well at my brother's home for a variety of reasons, but I think it has a lot to do with noise. I live in Manhattan, on the 16th floor of a high-rise. You can turn the noise down, but you can never shut it off. My brother Ken lives in a village in Northamptonshire, 80 minutes north of London. At night -- or, really, after the school next door lets out for the day -- there is ... nothing. No noise. The birds in the morning sound like a rooster, relatively speaking. And one night there, I slept nine hours. Don't remember a thing. That never happens to me. Maybe silence is more important in our lives than we think -- or than I've thought.
2. In the last couple of years, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has been pushing a project of his, FanVision, a handheld TV/video device fans at live games could get in the stadium to watch replays of the game they were watching, as well as live games around the league. FanVision might make millions. It might be the next Xbox for all I know. But to me it's a truly dumb idea.
We're already hit over the head in NFL stadiums with deafening music and replays after nearly every play on the big scoreboards -- and the boards now give more and more fantasy football info, so you can follow your fake team while rooting for your real one. (Most people have their iPhones or Blackberries to follow their teams, if they wish, at games.) Do we need to be so bombarded with more media? Do we want to shut off all human communication at the expense of more distractions inside the stadium?
The NFL (and other American pro sports) could learn something from a game like cricket. No music. No exploding scoreboards. There's the game, and discussion in the stands. I realize we're beyond that. And I may not be in the majority here, and I may be Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino. But I wonder what fans would say if team owners took a poll of all their season ticket holders and asked if they favored music played at 105 decibels between plays. Maybe the fans want it. But I'd bet there'd be nearly 50 percent, if not more, who would say either kill the music or play it at half the volume.
3. I do not envy you, NBC peers, on your Olympic travels to London. It's a great, great city, but the traffic is insane. Take the Tube a bunch. Clean, fast, well-marked, everywhere.
"I can't watch the #NFLTop100 list anymore... These cats ain't better than me! #realtalk can't wait until this upcoming season"
-- @SeanWSpoon56, the Atlanta linebacker who apparently didn't like watching Brian Cushing of the Texans get the No. 54 ranking on NFL.com's top 100 player list last week. Or maybe it was Jonathan Vilma at 58.
"Take my word for it Pete Carroll isn't playing mind games talkin about how well rookies looked.. he could start 3 rookies.. loves competition"
-- @PatKirwanCBS, the radio host and CBS football analyst, who is very close to the Seattle coach.
"Enduring theme from NFLPA/NFL continued discord: billable hours."
-- @adbrandt, the lawyer, former cap manager and current ESPN columnist Andrew Brandt.
"You can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish."
-- @JimIrsay, the Colts' owner, on Friday morning.

But Joe Grasso, owner of the recently opened Grasso's Magic Theatre, knows this isn't true. He bought the space after his son went to magician school (it was originally a garage with a cheese refrigerator in back) and created a dark red space with a proper sound system and stage. He hosts different acts on Friday or Saturday night and is planning to add a family-friendly Sunday matinee. So far, Grasso says, the only problem is getting butts in seats. But take it from us: This is worth seeing. Don't ask questions. Don't deliberate. Take Mom this Saturday for an early Mother's Day or go on your own and support these jazzy performers who just want to share their tricks with you. And clear their names once and for all.

Actor Nathan Fillion is one of those actors who makes everything he touches awesome. He gave us the creeps as the evil preacher Caleb in the last epic season of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. He gave Han Solo a (parsec) run for his money as one of the hottest, most sarcastic heartthrobs in the galaxy as Captain Malcolm Reynolds on Firefly and Serenity. He made us laugh as the egostical and dubious superhero Captain Hammer in Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.
He won our admiration when he urged his legions of Twitter followers to vote in the Star Wars Fan Movie Challenge.
And now, most recently, Fillion snuck in a Star Wars reference into his new detective show Castle. Sure the writers wrote the dialog, but Fillion talking about Jedi skills is full of awesome.
Novelist Richard Castle and Detective Kate Beckett have a discussion about how long she dated her ex boyfriend who just so happens to be an F.B.I. agent on the current case.
Beckett: "Six months."
Castle: "Six months, what?
Beckett: "We dated for six months."
Castle: "I didn't ask."
Beckett: "Yeah, I know. You were not asking very loudly."
Castle: "I know, I'm like a Jedi like that."

Fort Worth Hosts RCMA for the Second Time
RCMA 2010 in Fort Worth, Texas, will be RCMA's second visit to this vibrant Southwest city, which hosted the conference in 1986.
There's a lot to like about Fort Worth for religious meetings: affordably priced meeting facilities and accommodations, exciting entertainment options, and a convenient location with ample airlift capacity.
Meeting Space and Accommodations
Beginning with meeting space, the Fort Worth Convention Center provides more than 253,000 square feet of space: 41 breakout rooms and a total of 58,849 square feet of meeting-room space; a 28,000-square-foot ballroom; and a 13,500-seat arena. In addition, the center has a public events plaza for outdoor gatherings. The plaza links the Fort Worth Water Gardens to the center's new grand entrance.

There are 135 hotels/motels in Fort Worth, offering a total of more than 12,000 guest rooms (more than 2,000 of which are in the downtown are). The Omni Fort Worth, which is adjacent to the convention center, opened in January 2009; this $115 million, 38-story hotel has 614 rooms and offers 48,000 square feet of meeting space, all with first-class amenities.

Small business doesn't want a talking head
You have to wonder what's going on when governments turn on the charm towards small business.
There's been a little bit of that lately by the Federal Government with a range of announcements such as the proposal to appoint a new Australian Small Business Commissioner.
We have even seen the Prime Minister venture down to a small bookshop in Canberra to make the announcement.
Ok, that might have been a little corny or predictable, but no doubt our Prime Minister was trying to cuddle up to small business by offering a new small business cop on the beat. The problem is that people remember the last time the Federal Labor Government offered us a new "cop on the beat."
Remember the "tough petrol cop on the beat" we were promised? The poor old Petrol Commissioner doesn't even want to be called the petrol commissioner anymore. How could any smart prime ministerial adviser allow the prime minster and the Federal Labor Government to fall into that potentially huge trap for a second time?
Well, Canberra is one of those places where advisers can quickly lose touch with the punters in voterland. Dangerously for the advisers they pour over responses from carefully selected focus groups and they rarely stray too far from their political comrades when seeking an opinion.
Not surprisingly, the advisers like to talk to those who agree with them and certainly don't really like those daring or smart enough to have an alternative, or heaven forbid, "new" idea or approach. Indeed, those having a new idea or approach can be seen as "activists" and need to be kept away lest they encourage Ministers or MPs to have new ideas that the advisers or bureaucrats don't like.
Of course, by not taking on new ideas the gene pool eventually collapses and Governments inevitably get voted out. As sad as that may be for some, it's even worse to find out that those advisers and bureaucrats who caused the problem in the first place may still have a job and continue to be a bad influence on a new Government. There's obviously something to be said for all departmental jobs to be declared vacant when a new Government is elected!
Naturally no adviser is ever going to willingly admit that he or she has limited expertise or has made a mistake. Unfortunately that leaves Governments to sink or swim on the advice of advisers and bureaucrats who are narrowly focused and protective of their political turf.
It's even worse when it comes to small business policy as few advisers or bureaucrats understand small business. That's why the small business portfolio is so challenging and that's why small business issues are often escalated to the Prime Minister's office for the simple reason that the Prime Minister's advisers are supposed to be smarter than your average adviser.
A smart prime ministerial adviser would know that there are lots of votes amongst small businesses for any government that helps small businesses get a fair deal from the big end of town. An even smarter prime ministerial adviser would know that small businesses would quickly see through a big talking but toothless, powerless and defenceless Australian Small Business Commissioner.
And, of course, the smartest type of prime ministerial adviser would be pushing very strongly for an independent Small Business Commissioner that's tough, who is backed by new, cutting edge legislation, and who can handle all the legal tricks and games that the big end of town can play.
Small businesses don't want a talking head for an Australian Small Business Commissioner. There are plenty of industry associations that are ready to talk on behalf of small businesses. We also get lots of talk from the ACCC on small business issues.
Instead, what small businesses want, and need, is a Small Business Commissioner who can do what the ACCC and industry associations always talk about but can't or don't do. Small businesses want a person who can directly help them in their dealings with the big end of town. That means a Small Business Commissioner who can help resolve disputes between small businesses and the big shopping centres, franchisors, Coles and Woolworths and the like.
Here the Federal Government didn't have too far to go for guidance on how to get it right when it came time to announce the proposed new Australian Small Business Commissioner. Victoria had long shown the way. South Australia had improved and strengthened that Victorian model. Western Australia saw the light and now New South Wales is onboard.
Of course, a Federal Labor Government or a Labor-groomed prime ministerial adviser could have easily ignored a coalition-led initiative in Western Australia or New South Wales, but what about the ground breaking work done in South Australia by a State Labor Government? Surely, a smart prime ministerial adviser would have been looking in the direction of South Australia for guidance on a truly ground breaking Australian Small Business Commissioner.
Sadly, even visionary advisers get blurry vision sometimes. Who knows what happens. They may get distracted by challenges to their boss or their authority, or they may not have the energy or strength to override those departmental officers who call the shots and who don't want their authority challenged by a truly independent Small Business Commissioner. It might just be that a Small Business Commissioner is not the biggest thing on the adviser's mind or the adviser knows the proposal is just a gimmick.
We all know how fast government can move when they really want to, so you have to wonder why they don't seize the opportunity when one is handed to them on a platter.
In the meantime, we await the announcement of the person who is to become the new Australian Small Business Commissioner. This is an exciting time as there's no shortage of rumours doing the rounds. A Melbourne Cup field of names has been mentioned and the odds in relation to particular names have lengthened or shortened depending on which conspiracy theory is popular on a particular day.
While knowing the person who gets the role often tells you a great deal about how the role might develop, the more astute observer will look to see what powers the person is actually going to get from the Federal Government. People appointed to the role can come and go, but the powers the person is to be given is much more revealing about what the Federal Government is really thinking about the new role.
Here we know that the new Australian Small Business Commissioner is regrettably not likely to have any legislative backing and will lack statutory independence which all means that the Commissioner can be removed at anytime. With that level of uncertainty and window dressing you have to wonder who would apply for the role.
No doubt the person appointed will be introduced as a "star" appointment, but we will all know that stars can sadly fizzle, fade away or just implode. Let's hope the person appointed is tough enough to stand up to those bureaucrats and advisers who were looking for a "yes" person for the role.

The biggest thing which could be done to help small business would be to legislate training requirements for middle managers before they can lead others. Their knowledge of basic risk management in the areas of quality, safety, environment, and security could be improved with advantage.
Mick In The Hills says:
Middle management in small business???
Your public service indoctrination is showing.
The critical factor for small business is as shown in the photo for this article - CASH.
M says:
One complaint I hear from small business is that the cost of comopliance with variouis regulations is far too onerous, and half the time the red tape and hoops they have to jump through are the most costly parts of running a business.
A guy I know was looking at setting up a small business in a shop and he said the cost of all this was going to be 100k, and that was before he even thought about looking at fitting out the space. Shot and sunk before it started.
How about simplifying or rationalising all that for a start?
Not Telling says:
Well said Frank "Well, Canberra is one of those places where advisers can quickly lose touch with the punters in voterland"
Hear Hear sista
Lauren says:
Lets just call them the Small Business Supremo…. It sounds a lot better than Small Business Muggins.
Gordon says:
Trouble for small business is that it's optional. None of us have a gun to our heads when we set up shop. It is therefore assumed that we are all enjoying ourselves otherwise we'd just stop and get a job like everyone else. Banging on about how we stay up late, risk our own capital blah blah blah, all true but why should anyone give rat's? Care factor from punters & Govt is basically zilch.
