    I would laugh if on Wednesday, after he wins, the stock markets go through the roof.

    Strange isn't it? Especially since the stock market has been doing so well lately.

    The big drop of course is Obama’s fault and has nothing to do with the dramatic job loss figures, showing that the unemployment rate is the highest in 25 years and that over a million jobs have been lost this year, oh yeah and that the retail figures were lower than expected for October.

    No, it has nothing to do with that, it’s Obama’s fault.

    But to give the Lame Duck in Chief some credit, he did seem genuinely moved by the way Obama won. And given the way he placed minorities in prominent places in his cabinet, perhaps he honestly does feel this was a good, monumental thing.

    Check your history everyone...the stock market did the same thing after Clinton won. It will bounce back by this time next week. (If not sooner)
