Meet the Team Question for Issue 70 :

Each week we ask a question of our staff and featured writers to learn a little bit about them and gain some insight into where they are coming from.

This week's question is:

Gaming-wise, what do you expect of the new Congress?

Erin Hoffman, "The Double X Factor"

Nancy Pelosi could totally tank Ragnaros ... and seriously, I expect them to focus on what's important, and to get an asskicking if they don't.

Lara Crigger, "Playing Through the Pain"

I expect to see more of the same: misguided attempts at "protecting children." Plus, I predict that Hillary Clinton, enraged by debate with her political foes, will unleash her hidden, third-stage boss form: a half-naked man with silver hair and a 12-foot sword.

Jason Della Rocca, "Pattern Recognition"

The more things change, the more they stay the same :(

Shannon Drake, "Seed on the Road"

Maybe a few speeches and TV appearances. If they worry about games before they worry about important issues like Iraq, health care, the minimum wage and so on, I'll be rushing to vote the bums out as fast as I rushed to vote the bums in.

Russ Pitts, Associate Editor

I see the 110th Congress more of a Bejeweled Congress than a Pong Congress, like the 109th. (Bleep. Bloop.)

Joe Blancato, Associate Editor

Executing a timely, responsible partial withdrawal from all Horde territories, leaving the Forsaken, Tauren and the rest to work out their differences democratically.

Jon Hayter, Producer and Resident Alien
