You have had some pretty insightful remarks about the stock market so...is it ever going to turn? I'm getting really concerned about it and about how this will effect W and the GOP. I was listening to Kudlow and Cramer last night and they had on a conservative business analyst and he said, "many people are shaking their heads trying to figure out just what Bush is up to here. But it is clear that the Bush administration is not nearly as business friendly as many had hoped. In fact, they appear to be less friendly than the clinton administration." Yikes, them be harsh words. Kudlow said that rather than being like "Reagan relative to business, Bush is more like Nixon!" All on the panel agreed with that. Kudlow, of course, blamed a large part of the malaise on the steel tarriffs. I must admit that the backlash on the steel tarriffs has probably been a bit more severe than the Bushies calculated. Anyway, would love to hear your two cents on this.
BTW, I read a really depressing article about the Simon campaign and how the White House is troubled by Simon's lack of campaigning aptitude and fundraising abilities. According to this article, Bush is his only savior when it comes to raising money. Hope this isn't true. Seemed like more carping by perhaps, Riordan or Bill Jones people.
But we are busting one big mama bubble, and we aren't done yet. Real Estate, and the dollar, are next to get hit.
