Dixville Notch just finished voting. Huntsman got 2 along with 2 for Romney. This indicates Huntsman may have a good day tomorrow. I am rooting for him to come second.

Actually, I watch ECRI like a hawk. In early 2011, they said it looked like we'd see a Summer slowdown, but that a recession was not baked in the cards yet. Then during the summer, they said that not only was a recession going to happen, but that global economic indicators were turning down, so it looked like there might be a global synchronous recession. The timeframe ECRI was prediction was sometime in the first half of 2012. Not coincidentally, it's the same timeframe I've been quoting on these threads.

This the problem with telling people what's coming too far in advance. They get sick of hearing it. This thread is a microcosm of that. Anyway, I hope you guys are right, but I'm pretty certain you are not. I'm am invested for a recessionary bout. I don't plan to lose any money in the next one to come, which I believe like ECRI will hit sometime in the first half of 2012.
