I still think there is a possiblity of accelerated action in Iraq in October. Also, you have the election to deal with. I would wait. A GOP win-win in the Senate and House would create a quick rally with the prospects of a permanent tax cut and hopefully a capital gains tax cut being introduced.

Absolute fantasy. Any rally based upon the Pubbies having the stones to shirk public opinion (Washington-NY media) and cut taxes "for the rich" (those heavily invested) is one that is screaming SHORT THIS RALLY!!! The Pubbies will probably enact some window dressing tax cut, but the debt ceiling will have to be raised and that will cause foreign flight from the dollar and a hike in interest rates.

The worst thing for a political party is to be in power in the next two years.

The Pubbies are not the answer to our problems. Our problems are mass speculation in securities, gov't spending, and 50,000,000 hedonistic baby-boomers that will be huddling in the fetal position when their portfolios aren't worth enough to buy new tires for their import luxury sedan, that they are two payments behind, and the fact they owe $75K more than their suburban home is worth, due to climbing interest rates.

When these people lose it all, I doubt the gov't will survive in its present form.
