This is no small matter. CNN, CBS ... all the players spewing and manufacturing hate and doubt. . . what was the cost?
I can't help but to think the cost would have been much less if say Lieberman had been the DNC pick. . . .rather than the seasoned Blame America first Kerry.
thoughts?

Look beyond your borders - you wear blinders like most yankees. It's not how we spin our internal equity markets that matters in the long haul. We have to compete in an open and hotly competitive world market my friend...
The US buck went into an absolute tailspin against most competitive international currencies on the announcement of the continued rapage of the US economy by George.
160 basis point gain in one day has gotta be a record for the Canadian dollar vs. American.
What do you suppose that tells you about investor confidence in the US economy Sherlock? When was the last time you saw financial markets punish the dollar on the heels of a republican electoral win?
The terrorists keep chuckling while the US bankrupts itself...
