I'm a big fan of Ron Paul. I will also give Obama a genuine chance. He genuinely speaks of personal responsibility, in small and large comments (e.g. 'Parents, you must turn off the television set or video game and ensure your children do their homework'). He has earned a genuine chance...

+1. I've never seen a more incredible candidate in my life, and when I see Fox News Morning anchors, AND the Chair of the RNC (Terry Holt on Fox News this morning) say the same thing, I know I'm witnessing something amazing. For G_d's sake, give some credit to Obama...an amazing...

Well said.

He's going to need bipartisan help. I quit posting in P&R until after the election, true to my word. I believe the person with more potential has won, while I'm well aware that opinions vary. I think Obama will be much more centrist than many have claimed running up to the election...

Real estate agents are slimes who make way too much money for the value they add or function they provide on an average real estate transaction. I predict that you will see real estate commissions for some of the (few) competent real estate brokers drops to 1% TO 2% TOTAL, as competition...

I can just feel the explosive earnings growth and consumer-led recovery as unemployment keeps climbing, banks keep failing, consumer and corporate loans keep shrinking, housing values keep plunging, retailers keep failing, auto sales are in free fall, and entire countries border defaulting...

Hell no. Trading in 1973 or even 1980?? You must be at least 55. That's not intended as an insult.

Delusional thinking becomes delusional acts and causes economic agony.

By the way, that list of headlines IS NOT CHERRY PICKED. It's EXACTLY as it appears on Bloomberg.com today (11-03-2008). I wanted to re-emphasize this, because it would be easy to mistake that list as a compilation of troubling economic headlines appearing over a one year period.

Intense economic deterioration like I've never seen it. Optimism. Pessimism. Realism. You can only use one. A brief purview of the latest economic data gives all indications that we are going to have one mofo of a recession or even worse. Come All Ye' Pollyannish, and dispel the...

Smoke 'em if you got 'em, boyzzzz. Don't fret too much, though, because although any sane person would believe there's going to be a long, barren period of anemic economic activity (likely contraction like we haven't seen in decades as more jobs are shed), stock_tr3der knows how stocks...

Dude. Great catch. Seriously.

I live in Michigan. The world covets the Great Lakes, but an International Treatise (Canada and U.S., signed by President Bush and Canadian PM Stephen Harper) will ensure that no nation or U.S. state that does not touch any of the Great Lakes will get a single drop of our fresh water...

That's true. Less fat asses means median life expectancy will rise. The problem is that the food industry will come out with cheaper 'food-like edible substances' that taste great, but cause 643 different kinds of diseases. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/31/business/economy/31econ.html...
