Republicans who try to hang the Nasdaq crash on Clinton, Gore and/or Reno are demonstrating a lack of market savvy. From Cory Johnson of thestreet.com - I can't put it any better: thestreet.com

>>>Predictably and
exhaustively, Limbaugh (who, I should disclose, like me,
appears on San Francisco's KNBR 680 daily) devoted
his show Tuesday to blaming the market action on a
cabal of Bill Clinton-Al Gore-Janet Reno. His basic
premise: the White House's persecution of Microsoft
(MSFT:Nasdaq - news - boards) caused the market
meltdown.

Of course, Microsoft was off just 2.5%, a relative calm
spot in today's sea of red. Absent from Limbaugh's
discussion was the notion that outrageous tech-stock
valuations had led to a tech-stock belt tightening.

"This has got to be a problem for Al Gore," said
Limbaugh. "How will he explain it?" No Clinton fan here,
but a more savvy market watcher might expect Gore to
brag that the Nasdaq is still up 569% since his January
1992 inauguration. Perhaps Rush should leave the
market analysis to us; we'll leave Whitewater to him. <<<
