If Obama would just come out and say, Capital gains tax will not be increased for at least 2 years, I'm guessing it would make a tremendous difference in stockholders and investors holding on and not bailing out.

And Obama just vetoed a bill that would make it easier for banks to foreclose.

Tom are you sure that wasn't Harry Reid complimenting Obama on being a light skinned boy instead of a dark skinned boy who didn't have a distinct boy dialect unless he wanted to?

Several people were talking about how upset they were with President Obama.

As an example, here is an article from the day before yesterday titled "Recession far from over, Obama says."

If President Bush didn't do Tarp, and if President Obama didn't continue the massive spending, we very well might not be alive right now IMO.

Obama had a plan for loan modifications too....

McCain wants to reduce long term cap gains from 15% to 5% and Obama wants to increase cap gains tax.

It has tightened and it needed to do it.The largest micro variable in play right now is the prospect of the capital gains tax rate doubling after Obama takes office.

@Gayle Eisner President Obama apparently didn't hear from the same experts you did since he invested $15 mill a few weeks ago for their vacation home on Martha's Vineyard.
