The markets should have already discounted the possibility of Obama being re-elected ~ right?

Bwahahahahahha

Or, let me put it this way, the markets may be overjoyed to see Obama go but they are not exactly overjoyed to see a Romney in charge.

BTW, anyone here know how the pigeon drop game is played? Or, better yet, do you understand BUNCO?

The basic idea is this, a bunch of people scheme together to trick someone into giving them his valuables or his money. They walk off with the property or the money leaving him holding a bag of worthless newspaper clippings.

Although this might be played on anybody at any time, it works best when you find a pigeon who is a little bit desperate for MORE MONEY. So, you tell him "Hey we found a whole lot of money..... but we need to split it with you since you saw it first"

That gains his confidence feeling that "wow these guys are stupid".

Next thing you know they own your factory and you have a big debt to pay off to a bank ~ and oh, they got all the cash from that loan too.

So, Bunco and Pigeon Drop ~ played by the people known as Romany, Romanies, Romanis, Roma or Roms.

Sounds similar to the email I receive daily from Africa. Did you know the daughter of a warlord who was killed needs help getting 9 mil out of a bank ? Yeah. Just what I need. Some warlord money.
