Double file, 118 pages, all new evidence. Two new negative scenarios, lots of brand new internal link evidence, deep affirmative answer files to numerous scenarios, with your key 2AC answers.
Middle East - This is a political capital DA. Obama needs to budget his political capital to have enough to resolve the Israel/Palestinian peace process. He'll do this as long as he can afford the time commitment. The affirmative plan is controversial and diverts his attention. Impact is Middle East war and American soft power. The internal link cards for this - that Obama's commitment of time is key - are amazing.
Chambliss - This is a supermajority DA. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) is the only thing standing in front of Democrats reaching 60 votes in the Senate and implementing all of Obama's agenda. The runoff race on December 2 will determine whether Chambliss wins or loses. The internal link to this is DIFFERENT from other Chambliss DA's in that it is tied to Obama's popularity. Early action on renewable energy is popular and that would help Martin beat Chambliss. The impact in this file is the EFCA/Economy/Hegemony.
There is a 25-page section with new evidence on Political Capital and Focus links that... [Read More]

This TF contains updates to the disads from last week, cap and trade and the short term stimulus disad.
It also contains 2 other disads:
Colombia FTA Good- Bush has pretty explicitly made clear that this is his last hope for a legacy, and due to submission rules it is the only FTA that could realistically be voted on in the upcoming lame duck session of congress. New export markets are key to US economic recovery.
Transition- a more generic version of the Obama agenda disad- this argues that Obama has to sequence his agenda items carefully, pushing for his energy agenda too soon causes him to get bogged down. The strength of this disad is the nebulous nature of its impact- its much easier to win strong Obama generally good than it is to win its bad. The specificity of the energy link evidence is also strong. This disad requires you to win that Obama will not pursue energy now (obviously) which means you CAN'T read cap and trade as a 2NC impact.
Also included are 2AC's to the most common link arguments, and some new Obama specific winners win cards that turn all Obama good disads.
