Re: "The economy was booming until a few months ago, when AG decided to help out his Republican buddies by raising interest rates a few too many times. AG won the Congress for the Republicans in 1994 using this trick, and he may have succeeded with the White House in 2000 as well." How long have you been hearing these voices? EP

Scummy: re >>The economy was booming until a few months ago, when AG decided to help out his Republican buddies by raising interest rates<< My all time favorite was when the Fed loosened just before the election between Carter and Reagan. That great sucking sound that was heard was inflation, which was running about 17% annually, spiking to >20%, as well as the last gasp from Carter's campaign. I've been a devoted Fed follower ever since.
