Looks like we are going to be having Monica and Bill for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next year. I find it hard to believe that the Republicans would want to weaken the President in the face of the economic abyss the world is sliding into. They are being way too partisan, IMHO. Putting their narrow agenda above the good of the economy can't be a good idea even if He is a sleaze. Remember, Clinton was good for the economy. So, we won't have any clear leadership as the ship sinks. I guess that gives me more incentive to short the whole world market. I guess the only way it makes sense is if the Republicans see this as an opportunity to move the political agenda to the right. That doesn't bode too well for the economy either. Repression and Depression usually go together. I have had no luck getting shares to short from Brown and Co. But shares of yahoo, lycos, excite, aol, seek are available. Does anyone think any of these will fare any better than NZMA if NZMA takes the big dive? It would be a lot easier to short shares than to mess around with options.
