Retirement accounts have lost 2 TRILLION, Dow is down 440 today
And that's what's going to be on the mind of everyone watching the debate tonight.

Obama has a huge opportunity tonight. He can offer the leadership, calm and hope that people are desperately looking for.

And I'm betting he will do just that.

5. What a disaster..
can you imagine if we'd let the repubs put our social security in the stock market too?...All I can say is that it seems very likely that our grandchildren will be paying for this mess.
