you know well that on average the market performs better under democratic president than republican one

I remember when Obama won in 2008 I posted multiple times when he would actually be on the clock. They are still blaming Bush so I don't ever believe he will take responsibility for anything that goes wrong. The next 4 years are so predictable. We will get increased taxes that will not make a dent in the deficit. The economic growth will be weak, about 2%. We will avoid the fiscal cliff and get some slight reductions in the growth of spending. But no real tax reform, no real entitlement reform.

Well, that just goes to show how economically illiterate a vast number of people are in this country.

Now, I don't think our issues would be solved under Romney either, but with Obama are fiscal situation is going to deteriorate much more quickly.

Bernanke has what about a year left and Obama is going to put in a hard core Keynesian to replace him for certain, which means that the bastardization of our monetary system and the dreadful policies coming out of the Fed will never change.

At this point the only thing you can conlcude is that the socialist are winning and winning big time.

Funny, but those calling themselves Progressives with a slogan are FORWARD is nothing but Status Quo.

You can thank Grover Norquist and the republican house for that. With their non compromising our way or no way attitude nothing will get done.

Slow down, I'm still trying to figure out the math on that double percent sign. That's equivalent to just -0.022%, right? Hardly a major crash. ;)

matey, why dont you do some self-review tell all of us how many of your "predictions" have really materialized?

i have been reading you for a while and all i see is ctrl C followed by ctrl V from Foxnews and other conservative loonies

Do you really believe there was NO compromise? Please stop it. I think the best source we have for what went down was Woodward's book. Sure you can blame the R's but don't insult my intelligence to suggest that Obama didn't play a role. A leader would have made something happen.

How has the S&P performed since 2008?

Proportionally to the amount of money printed out of thin air via:

TARP
TALF
TAF
QE1
QE2
QE3
Operation Twist1
Operation Twist2
Etc......

I think the market is down because before the polls even closed last night Mitch McConnell released a statement effectively telling the President to go to hell and he was looking forward to their Thelma and Louise fiscal cliff finale. The market is reacting to that, not the Obama victory. But you knew that anyway, didn't you.

Typical double speak from you. Either the market is an economic indicator or it isn't.

TARP
TALF
TAF
QE1
QE2
QE3
Operation Twist1
Operation Twist2

if i put 1 dollar in S&P in 2008 how many dollars would i have today? without your rubbish list and with your rubbish list....

i dare you son, don't be a taintwipe and answer pretty please!!!
