the "real" money to be made in the toss up states is selling stuff to all the people waiting to get into the rallies..one ad said you could make $100-300 based on keeping 20%of profits. Having stood in line and bought up pins etc I believe it! At least for Obama here in Colo the lines are long...

what I'm wondering is how many paid volunteers will vote McCain:D

I think Rob is a bouncer but Jonathan is ok...actually so what if they are paid...every day in the paper and on craigslist is an ad to work for Obama doing the same thing and they have far more money..:cool:

not at all disagreeing with you top, only in very recent years could a borrower purchase a home with less than 10-20% down (in some cases 5%) and very strict Loan to Income ratios etc. Obviously the individual is to blame but as Greenspan put it we all thought the banks & mortgage Co's would be...

America...the Land of the Free..... to be stupid. However it is a catch 22 as we are also the land of the Free to be creative, entrepreurial and take a risk. So who should determine what is stupid and too risky ....such as the creation of the Wright Bros? Ultimately it is a delicate balance...

so incredibly ignorant... perhaps ALL people will now believe they can achieve great things and there is opportunity for all who are willing to invest time, education and hard work.

I can't believe you and obvious...hasn't the market already priced IN Obama win? We are lower today than when Bush took over....almost 8 sorry ass years later. BTW markets have already melted down world over. At least we will have a smart YOUNG energetic president who hopefully will have some...

the best thing about this poll is I get to vote more than once:D :D :D vote early vote often:p

I was a Hillary delegate and if McCain had picked Hutchinson I may have voted for him. His pick of SP :confused: did him in with I bet 95% of Hillary (fem) voters. We may want a female president but we want an INTELLIGENT president more.

This is the funniest thread ever better than jokes...however to the OP I would prefer a moderate muslim president than a radical (KKK)christian right.

WRONG...if you are not a US citizen then you are forgiven...the VP PRESIDES over the senate and cast a tie breaking vote. NO WAY shape or form does the VP " LEAD" the senate. There is a very big difference between calling a meeting to order and leading the discussion.

If memory serves the last time we had a Dem pres both the country and the markets did very well:)

FOX news run by Roger Ailes...right wing terriorist far more damaging to the US than the current college prof ex left wing terriorist:eek: trying hard to get to 10

You are making an assumption that Palin has actually read the constitution, which from her actions as Governor is highly doubtful.

I can tell you from personal experience what TOS would/will do. I have been a customer for 3 years and like many others I was in a pickle with margin calls. They DID NOT automatically liquidate my account but called me and e-mailed me to advise me of the situation. I was able to work with...

THEN ALL the threads in Politics relate to trading...no? now I'm a 4 post wonder....:)

and how does this relate to trading...mods doesn't this belong in chit chat...religion/politics

Interactive brokers also allows futures (US currency) and futures option trading in the IRA. How I don't know ...at least how the risk is managed or funded...however in their FAQ sheet on IRA's they clearly state that you CAN trade futures and futures options in an IRa. You might want to check...

simulate what will happen in the event of a "crash"...your front month vega will skyrocket and back month IV will only go modestly higher so you will suffer a pretty big hit. This is the big risk to calendars/diagonals. That is why most "pros" don't have a back month as far back as you do...
