I’m going to give you another theory.

My son moved in with us in the fall of 2012. Jobs are lean here, so he took a no-pay internship position.

For two months, he showed up for 40 hours a week. Everyone was happy with his work. There was a managerial slot open and they said that he was the guy to fill it.

The morning after the election, everyone filed into the office with a sense of depression and doom. The boss announced that they wouldn’t be filling ANY of the open slots. After another week or two (just to be sure that he couldn’t convince them to give him *any* job - let alone the great one) my son finally told them that he had to move on to a paying position.

That slot is still standing open.

Companies know darn well that Obama and the Democrats mean uncertainty, insanity, and irrational attacks from Washington. They’re holding back until 2016.

It’s up to us to return sanity to the market by electing adults that the market can depend on.

They’re holding back until 2016.

When we're likely to elect a fire-breathing populist demagogue like Fauxchahontas?

Marie, at the last company I worked at, by the morning after election day, 66 people in my department were laid off, and 4 levels of management above me disappeared. Yes, I started looking for another job.

Looks to me like Zero's re-election affected a lot of business plans.
