Republicans are best for the stock market

Quote from Mav88:

...Control of the senate seems to be the only correlated variable, with republicans way out in front

A fact I've no doubt big arrow will now trumpet at every opportunity. Seeing as how only this morning he made it clear that he does not think all things republican are all bad all the time.

Correlation doesn't equal causation. Need to get a little deeper than that. There are also correlations that show dems are better for the economy, again it doesn't mean much without more information and proof.

Quote from Mav88:

Clearly, with the exception of Obama stumbling into the dip in 2009 and then pumping with QE. If you look at the 90's the market took off with the republican revolution. In the 90's the huge rally started in January 1995, almost to the day the republicans swept congress and everyone still talks about the 'good ol days' that was the republican revolution. The left says it was Bill Clinton, however being the slow ones that they are, they forget Clinton's first two years and the republican sweep that forced him rightward.

Well, with a clearly non biased, objective premise as the above, we will surely be able to come up with some solid causation. I especially like the Obama stumbling part. Obama can't get credit for anything from the right. Not that he should necessarily get credit for the doubling of the market, but when he gets no credit for anything, it's a wonder the U.S. is still in business.
