Certainly one could argue that the stock markets are reacting to the possibility that the party behind this mortgage back security financial crisis is about to be rewarded at the polls.

I have a feeling there is a lot to that argument.

Hubby has heard that theory around his "water cooler". The market situation is bad, but folks are starting to wonder with all the "fixes" that keep failing to work , that there has to be another reason for this collapse.If the Dems gain all 3 branches, Wall Street will consider today as a "good day" compared to what would happen in the future.

I wonder...was the Obama campaign given a discount for this air time? The networks would probably charge the McCain campaign triple.

Maybe he will ask his supporters to not burn down the cities if he loses the election.

HAH! what you said! all the talking heads should be saying exactly that. mccain should run a ad too. i thought about it since reading about it yesterday. why the hell is this guy spending MILLIONS for air time, asking hard working and poor people (his main voting block) for more and more cash and then be so wastful. aint like folks have lots of spare cash these days. and who are his big donors? that should be asked to and the 24/7 obama chanel. mccain and the msm can beat obama over the head with this til the 29th, if they do it wisely.

“Certainly one could argue that the stock markets are reacting to the possibility that the party behind this mortgage back security financial crisis is about to be rewarded at the polls.”

Yep, if there is a crisis in confidence, it is due to the massive coverup of the ACTUAL causes of the F&F meltdown, spearheaded by the whiny ranting of Pelosi.

The failure to get to the heart of the issues, the pretending is it all the Repubs’ fault, the BS of the politics, has served to undermine public trust.

the bailout isnt the answer according to what the market did and what the polls reflected anout the bailout.

the lack of a genuine answer to resolve the economic crises resulted in selloff.

Signs point to more of the SOS on Capitol Hill- hence, confidence plunges.

They did at least 3 rallies that I’m aware of here in Wisconsin yesterday - La Crosse, Waukesha, and Mosinee. There may have been one more...

Obama is where he is because of "marketing". It is all about "image". The books, the trip to Europe, the Roman Stage backdrop on nomination night....

He's pretty much "Tokyo Rose" in drag...

His background is filled with scandal...people like Wright and Ayers but "his people", don't care....He's clean and articulate and a pure socialist.

God, help us!!!

Or “word of the day” posters ala Mr. Robinson’s Neighborhood! ;)

I’ve got a few suggestions if he goes that route:

Word of the day list for Mr. Obama’s Neighborhood
1. SOCIALISM
2. TERRORISM
3. LIES
4. FRIENDS
5. NEIGHBORS

Rasheid Khalidi lives about 8 blocks south of the Obamas.

Khalid al Mansour, however is different. He's a northsider. (Cub fan?)

And Mazen Asbahi's digs are in the Loop.

LOL!!! I get it. I’d honestly hoped I’d be the first to post that.

Obama wants to go on TV on the anniv of the 1929 stock market crash, just like FDR went on TV to address the nation on that fateful day.

Biden had better be prepared for jokes.

I’m very sorry to hear about your father’s health problems. I’ll be praying for him, and you, and your whole family...

I’m not an expert either, but even SNL brought up Soros in their skit about the bailout bill last week.

There has been a LOT of “chatter” about Soros and the exact possiblity you have discussed. The goal? Destroy the United States and institute Socialism on a world-wide scale. Their goals haven’t changed since the 50s, really.

This might have worked 30 years ago, when people didnt have other choices.

In my house, with no prompting by me, my kids declared that they would just watch the TIVO’d shows.

Obama is pissing away millions. Is this what you want for President? (that was rhetorical, not directed at YOU.)

Oh yeah -- and I don't see where Soviet booster, Alice Palmer lives.

Whatever else he may be Obama is not original. That nomination speech at the stadium was was first done by Roosevelt in 1936.
