The Nasdaq fell 70+ a couple or three % under Clinton's watch. What precipitated that was not the energy bit, nor the knowledge that Bush was a candidate, nor even the knowledge that he'd finally won (it was already down then, and virtually inexorably moving further down regardless the winner of the election, and the effect of that down economy on federal tax revenues was set in stone regardless the winner).

RE: "The other reaosn the market fell were obviously 9-11 and the Iraq War." By the time of 9/11/2001, the market was already WAY down there, and fell a little further to its still standing bottom within a couple of weeks or so. Since the market was already virtually right down there before 9/11 happened, everyone can see that 911 cannot be a basic cause of its fall, just an event to stretch it out. Get real.

The Market has risen through the time of the more recent Iraq war, and that war therefore, certainly cannot be the cause of the far prior great fall. Get real, even lefties with brains won't buy your foolishness (if that isn't an oxymoron - sorry lefties).
