The Nikeii opens in two hours.......we'll see how much events here will roil the markets. I hope you're right but my impulse is to sell the rest of my stocks if things don't crash tomorrow. Yeah...it's six of one and half dozen question...i did something because I was pretty sure that there'd be little upside either way.... It so hard to know how to place this one. Right now I am sitting on my hands until it becomes clearer.

The president said tonight: The American people may have voted for divided government, but they didn’t vote for a dysfunctional government. So I’m asking you all to make your voice heard.

Its tough being speaker.......... ;-) Boehner: I didn't want "mano-a-mano" with Obama As House Speaker John Boehner left his ceremonial office building and was walking through the Speaker's Lobby surrounded by his security detail, he expressed his frustration with the ongoing debt debate gridlock. CBS News' Jill Jackson overhead the Speaker say: "I didn't sign up for going mano-a-mano with the President of the United States." His remark was dry in tone, and it was followed by silence as walked down the marble stairs and left the Capitol. Boehner is caught in the middle of a battle within his own party and with the opposition party, and he apparently didn't expect being Speaker would lead to verbal combat with the president in prime time. read more................. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20083269-503544.html
