[edit] Neutrality / POV

It would appear that an individual concerned with only one particular issue (Stem Cell Research), has taken a significant portion of this already short article to complain about this representative's voting record in that specific area. This does not conform, in my opinion, to the Neutral Point-of-View policy. Comments? --Pylon 02:07, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

One of the listings this article is said to be categorized under is pro-choice candidates. I would be VERY surprised if Mr. Walsh is pro-choice on abortion. Ms. F.M., constituent, Liverpool, NY

[edit] Jim Walsh's Official Statement on Stem Cells

Walsh claims to support stem cell research, just not those derived from embryonic stem cells.

I agree that this section needs to be rewritten to conform to the NPOV policy. Jeh25 14:22, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stem Cell Research

Like many articles, this one has incorrectly stated that Walsh supports Stem Cell research, this Vote smart link shows this clearly, http://www.vote-smart.org/issue_keyvote_detail.php?vote_id=3879&can_id=H2822103 . Please chance this immediately.

[edit] Stem Cell Research

The reason most people object to Mr. Walsh's stand on embryonic stem cell research is that embryonic stem cells have the potential to repair more injuries and cure more diseases than the other types of stem cells. Walsh opposes it all for the sake of an abstraction. A few cells connected together do not a human being make. We drop dead skin cells every day. And what about the parents of in vitro babies? Are they obligated to bring to term every embryo in the petrie dish? Wojto 01:17, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
