Lots of heat around here. Not much light. No matter who wins, the real winner will still be in doubt. The "winner" will face serious problems with legitimacy and credibility besides the obvious gridlock. The "loser" will look magnanimous and keep his options open for 2004. The likelihood of a recession or serious slowdown after an economic expansion of record length is quite high. Doesn't this economy have an exhausted look about it?

If the midterm elections are preceded by a stagnant economy, who gets the blame but the guy in the Oval Office? Eight straight Republican administrations in the last 70 years have had to deal with significant economic problems at the mid-term point. I wouldn't be surprised if some bigwigs of both parties (like Gebhardt and Lott) don't secretly hope their guy loses.

I voted for Gore and want Bush to get it. Why? So we can get a post-election rally in the patch and I can bail out and hunker down. Cynical? Absolutely. I try not to get too excited about this pol or that pol. Its all bidness.
