I don't know what's scarier - Financial Services under the current clowns or under the former clowns. Ultimately it doesn't matter, cuz they're basically all the same when it comes to that - let Wall Street write the laws and the regs.

"That will put an end to any further legislative initiatives by O, and as a bonus will take Pelosi off the podium and Frank off the chair of the house financial services committee."

..and put what god-awful wingnuts in their place? Will it get BETTER? NO!

Taking Barney off the financial committee would be a huge bonus. Plus, I think gridlock in Congress would be great right about now. Too many spending bills for things we can't afford. I'd love to see a hung Congress after November. If that is the result we get, then I would bet we get a huge market rally.

Until we get a 3rd party that is serious about solving this country's budget and debt problems and has the brains to do so, I'd really just prefer a split Congress from now on.

Each party steals so many articles of faith from the other, and the candidates spend so much time making each other’s speeches, that by the time election day is past there is nothing much to do save turn the sitting rascals out and let a new gang in.
