Bushies are bad for business. Even with their corporate tax breaks and deregulation, they jeopardize everything with reckless and corrupt policies and practices which at least in the long run are bad for American business.

For instance, though GW is worse than Reagan and Nixon, look at how how the economic hangovers were after those two GOP presidents. Both GHW Bush and Clinton had to raise taxes to pay off the Reagan deficits and balance the budgets.

The markets and big business did great under Clinton and JFK and they remember. Not only was there prosperity but it was all paid for plus surpluses.

Five leading firms Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Bear Stearns Companies Inc.,Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. have contributed $6.2 million so far to candidates before the November elections, with about 52 percent going to Democrats.

Impressive.

"People give ideological money and they give money to people they think are going to win," said Maurice Carroll, director of Quinnipiac University's Polling Institute in Hamden, Connecticut. "It looks like it's going to be a good year for Democrats."

I think its more than that. I think they realize another GOP win is very problematical for this country.
