McCain was neck to neck with Obama after Palin was declared the Vice Presidential candidate, it was a horse race and then...Wall Street took a dump because regulators, legislators, investors, news media and whistle blowers were asleep at the wheel. Anyone lamenting the rapid ascendancy of Obama will most likely be paying more attention to the relevant economic indicators in the future. No one is immune from a reality smackdown.
you speak like you think the crash was an accident and due to players in the system being asleep...i believe the crash was intentionally timed and orchestrated as the pre-election surprised to win one for the black one!
