do not be so sure - neither candidate program has a constructive solution

That's fine, if you agree with every policy of one person, even if that person is Warren Buffet. When studying our current financial mess and each candidates program, did you do that 2000 Dow points ago (which btw, was only weeks ago) or where we're going to be 1st qtr of 09? I don't remember any of the candidates or their economic teams warning about an impending credit bubble bursting. Instead, we have politicians reacting, and coming up with policy while looking through a rear view mirror. Which is why I don't place faith in what the candidates are promising but more importantly on their voting record and MY OWN gut feel of each guy. Promising to save the world while having no previous record of battles fought or claiming to favor tax cuts when your record says otherwise seems suspect to me. Even complaining about how Fox news is costing him a few polling points when the entire main street media has been in his corner tells me much about the makeup of the man. My earlier post was directed at all the hype we're expected to buy into, and more importantly how the psychology of the crowd is just screaming that it's time to fade that trade. The world is universal in its desire to see O as prez. Anytime I see that much conviction I want to run the other way. SO
