See Rande's thread for his opinion on WCOM and other bargain-priced telecoms. I certainly agree.

<<The real losers of any slowdown in the industry will be heavily leveraged startup companies and the equipment companies not the ATT,Worldcom or Verizon. >>

I guess you dont consider $40 - 60 Bln of debt highly leveraged? WCOM and T have debt/equity rations of .4 and .5

Spek, I have hated Worldcom forever, but that was price related. At these prices, I would say they are only about 20% overpriced. I am not certain about good management, though I will agree that they have aggressive management. Most phone cos. do not.
