Obama + Pelosi + Reid=loss of economic and religious freedom and the end of the greatest constitutional republic in the history of the world.

Yes, Rush was talking about that...

Businesses have no confidence in Barak Hussein Obama and his Marxist agenda.

Correlation doesn’t necessarily imply causation. (See “post hoc ergo propter hoc”).

However, like Mulder on the X-Files, I want to believe! But to make this argument stick, someone needs to prove causation.

you are correct, but in this case it is not difficult to see the two are feeing off of each other.

Drive-by media try to tell us that the rise in 0bamma’s poll numbers is due to the fall in the stock market. I’ve always believed it’s the reverse, and more-so because the MSM lies to pump up 0bamma.

Obama's rising poll numberts are, IMHO, manufactured and represent push polls (for the most part when you look at sampling data).

Obama and his cronies in ACORN, the DNC, and the MSM are wholly corrupt and intend to steal the election if they cannot win it.

Obama has been directly tied and involved with ACORN, for a long time, and through his instrumentality we are seeing our free market and our voting process subverted and deconstructed before our very eyes.

But there is hope, despite what the push polls are saying, and Obama and his campaign and the MSM all know it, and fear it.

Then most every businessman and businesswoman should be strong supporters of McCain/Palin in terms of time, talent, and money right? They should be doing everything possible to defeat Obama/Biden and perhaps trying to help elect other Republicans, right?

Not causing, but surely contributing, as my headline says

It’s chicken and egg. And it feeds on itself.

Market traders' fears will cause exactly what they fear!

Their depression of the markets will cause an Obama Presidency!

Self-fulfilling prophecy.

“Correlation is not causation” is the #1 most important fact I learned in college. Maybe the only important thing.

(And I doubled majored, also got a minor, and a MA degree too. . .)

A small, small part of the decline in the stock market is due to the fact that people are realizing Obama is about to win and that his administration is unlikely to be able to provide any help. As all of us here know, he will almost undoubtedly make things infinitely worse.

The fundamentals of the collapse go far beyond Barack Obama though. We are potentially looking at the collapse of the entire world economy unfolding before our very eyes.

Too much capital has been lost out of the market, and credit is locked up tight. There are no easy solutions out there. Period.
