7 more precinct results are in (38 to 45) and Bush's lead dropped by 35 (from 830 to 795). At this rate the Florida vote could end up a tie - what happens then? <VBG>

OT - Jim, I was making a joke using sarcasm, it's one of those annoying Democrat habits <ggg>. I'm sorry I offended your sensibilities. As to my contributions "on topic" - I'm neither an industry insider nor a very good stock picker. Besides, every time I mouth off to one of my friends or family about a stock it promptly finds a hole to fall into and never crawl out of. Believe me, you don't want me blathering about my favs, unless you're looking for some short candidates. I trade actively about six of the bigger cap drillers (FLC, DO, GLM, NE, RIG, ESV) based on squiggles on a screen. I also hold underwater positions in KEG, PKD, and LOILY. If I felt I had something helpful to contribute to the board I would. Please lighten up, lifes too short. Alex

Raising cash. Sold my lg RTN.B pos @ $33 vs basis 22 n cng. IMHO capital preservation is top priority until questions of political instability are resolved. Not short anything, but time to "hunker down" and play it safe till this is over. Still like Raytheon very much LT no matter who the next Prez turns out to be. BUT it's a lg cap and therefore very vulnerable to program selling if this market gets as ugly as my instincts and experience in this game are telling me it will. Be real careful out there folks. My guess is the best buys are yet to come. Isopatch
