Bentway, > But, the timing of it can serve Obama's political needs.

That's nothing new. Every president has always tried to prop up the economy just before an election. Bush was no different. I expected a bump-up in the 2nd half of 2008, but there was nothing Bush could have done to postpone the timing of the economic collapse.

Maybe Obama will have better luck, but I doubt it. The federal government continues to squander away its power to micromanage the economy.
