We are having a 3 way blinking contest right now ..

The contestants are

1) Republicans
2) Democrats
3) Financial Markets

The real contest is between 1 & 2 .. however 2 relies on 3 to blink in order to make 1 blink first .. However 3 thinks 1 is bluffing and will Blink first anyway.. On the other hand 1 is counting to 3 to remain unruffled and hopes that 2 will blink ..

However 1 being 1 .. has decided that blowing sand into eyes of 3 is just fine and will not make 3 blink ...

We'll see today - how is 3 going to deal with it today.

Stay tuned

I don't think the tea radicals care about anyone but their warped ideology.
