I know I shouldn't mention this, but I don't suppose Clinton's woes have anything to do with this major plummet in our wealth? All my stocks are down! My portfolio is down 10% today! At this rate, I'll be broke by the end of next week. Think of all that capital gains tax that the government won't get now! Will we be back in deficit?

GAWD!!!! There you go again! INTC, MSFT, SUNW, LSI yadda yadda yadda. What's going on? You should seriously consider limiting the tech exposure to your portfolio to something like 1/3 of the total (though I think 1/5 would be even better). So, for a change, look at the Campbell Soups, the Pepsis, the McD's, the Philip Morrises, and the 3M's of the world! And while you are at it, maybe you can look at a few others too, like insurance companies, container companies, flavor and fragrance companies... In the longer run, you will be glad you did. Dipy.
