TIPP Has It Tied Again...Kerry Moves Up One In The Three Way

I like our chances...

I'd almost give up a toe to see Bush and the detritus that follows him swept from the White House...

1. And Bush dropped a point in the three-way race

so he's only up there by 1. The best news is Bush's share of the vote is 47 percent in the two-way race and 45 percent in the three-way. Very bad for an incumbent.

I like our chances, too, especially because of how well Kerry is doing in the battleground states. I think his campaign's EV strategy is quite effective.

2. Think About It..

TIPP polls for the Investors Business Daily and the NBC-WSJ Poll polls for NBC and the Wall Street Journal...

I don't think the Investors Business Journal and the Wall Street Journal would pay for garbage numbers...

3. The Wall Street Journal has hardly been impartial in its Opinion

section, as it is openly supporting bu$h. Why wouldn't it want "garbage numbers", if those numbers could be used to persuade people to vote for its favored candidate?

6. I Am Not So Sure The Rich Have Done So Well Under Bush

The stock market is lower than when he was inaugurated and even if there is no net gain or loss you lost money if it sat in the market for four years and didn't move...

Rich people are dumb...

The stock market performs better under Dems... This offsets by a huge factor the small increase in taxes they bring...

7. Of course, rich people have been making TONS of money with bu$h

Huge tax breaks for billionaires, the government looking the other way with stock fraud, CEOs getting huge salaries while workers are just barely getting by...

The rich have their bases covered, and they're getting fat at bu$h's trough. Why would they think of a second bu$h term as dangerous to their interests?

8. As far as stock trading goes, there are ways to make money when the

market is down. For example, deliberately driving down the price of your own stock, then buying it back up at a fraction of the original cost.

Or selling a stock short when you know bad news is on the way.

Or investing in Euros or Yen when you know an announcement is going to be made that will reduce the value of the dollar.

And then, CEO's can make big bucks by destroying their companies, then bailing out with their golden parachutes.

Or, they can run their company into the ground, sell off its best parts to insiders, and make a tidy income that way.
