Bush and new AG will reverse the damage Gore,Boise,Klien,TPJ did to MSFT => that damage being essentially trying to kill an American Icon. I am very optimistic about MSFT making new highs within the first 6 - 8 months of a Bush regime.

Sandeep, investors pay higher PE 50 - 60 based on their confidence. In the last 3 yrs, Microsoft's EPS has steadily gone up from .79 to 1.05 to 1.42 to 1.80 now. The PE meantime fell as the Gore/Boise/DOJ took a toll on sentiment. As the moods swing, MSFT will command a PE similar or higher to that of GE. With a EPS of 1.80, 60 PE is 108. So there is a lot of room for the stock on the upside.
