The Dems are transparently laboring to trash the economy and the market with virtually every action and word. Then they will spin, and the press will report, Bush is the problem. Then the polls will be manipulated to show Bush's support "eroding fast". Then the Dems will propose Free Lunches for the middle class and handouts to its moochers.
Then we'll have the election.
Stocks and the dollar are both weak because they are "over owned" without supporting numbers.
