Re: Are you seriously of the opinion that folks who are democratic have lack the intellectual capacity to understand complex ideas such as economics or technology.

Kash,

Like I said, I think there's about only 10 people in the world that actually understand this stuff. I wouldn't doubt if all 10 were Republican.

BTW- I'm not a Republican, I'm not a Democrat. No offense meant to anyone.

Wouldn't you agree that most of the people that handle important economic decisions tend to be Republicans?

It's like tonight when I watched a little of the coverage about China. Greenspan is terrified of unemployment being at a 36 year low, so am I. Then I see more than one Democrat come out and say they are worried about losing US jobs if China gets in. Go figure?

Uh oh. Should democrats be required to note this as a disclaimer on their posts related to economics or technology? Which would be much of the on-topic posts we should have here -- other than the psychological elements of investing. Or the paranormal for some TA skeptics.

PT, D
(although I am becoming more agnostic WRT party each election... need the "none of the above")

ps: In my old state (which will remain nameless) I think we used to elect the biggest idiots to get them out of the area for most of the year and I don't think that democrats would be declared an endangered species except this term is locally dangerous: "If there aren't any more of the critters then they aren't endangering my property value any more."
