While I don't really like Bob or his politics (left-leaning) he has been right on the stock market

I second you on both counts. He's clueless politically - - doesn't see the value - - necessity in my view -- for tax cuts. Moreover, he's arrogant to callers.

That said, he called the bear market and I wish I had taken his "sell" advice. I too have been waiting for him to say "Buy" -- and if it's true that this is his signal, as of this weekend, I'm gonna pay attention.

He's been so crabby about the "permabulls" who've said BUY all the way down, that I think he'd be very wary of saying BUY himself if he didn't think he had real good reason to do so.

I hear Brinker infrequently but have not heard much to suggest he is left leaning at all.

His analysis of Bush's call to eliminate tax on dividends...that it will have little effect economically for some time but is rather a step in a major overhaul in the approach to taxation made a lot of sense to me.
