actually, wouldn't a bush win be better for the market. 1) tax cuts 2) interest rate go lower 3) white house, congress, house and supreme court all republican. I think the market would go nuts about lower interest rates and lower tax cuts. Although within a year after the environment is messed up and various other rep BS issues come to the forefront people will not be as happy with bush. But, they will be richer. Personally, I'd rather have a slower, less profitable road to riches, but with a democratic president. I still don't believe this rally. If CPI is tame we probably will explode to 4000 on the NASDAQ though. Was at carpedeum who said we will rally into the fed meeting and then sell of into labor day followed by a steady increase. All IMO JB

IBM, Kana in customer data management alliance NEW YORK, Aug 16 (Reuters) - International Business Machines Corp.(NYSE:IBM - news) and Kana Communications Inc. (NasdaqNM:KANA - news) said on Wednesday they had formed a global strategic alliance to provide systems that will allow businesses to manage interactions with customers and business partners over the Web. The alliance could mean as much as $1 billion in revenues for the two companies within the next couple of years, said Stephanie Hahn, general manager for IBM's customer relationship management business. The alliance calls for Kana's software, which manages data on customers and business partners, to be combined into IBM's line of computer hardware, software and services. ``We're going to integrate their software with our middleware on our hardware platform, developing services as well,'' said Hahn. ``Then we are going to carry out joint marketing and our sales team will jointly sell the products.'' Potential customers would include Internet start-ups as well as Fortune 2000 companies, including finance, telecommunications and retail companies, she said.
