Question: Would the McClueless duo restore confidence in our financial markets?
Edited on Mon Sep-15-08 06:00 AM by Skwmom
The less confident people are in the markets, the worse and longer the collapse will be. And unfortunately Karl Rove and his cohorts, while good at dirty campaigning, are clueless when it comes to anything which requires actual intelligence. It doesn't take a genius to win political campaigns, only someone who is without conscience.

I think the McClueless ticket is in real trouble. Foreign investors own a HUGE piece of the American Pie. Somehow, I just don't think the citizens/investors of the world are likely to buy into the phony reformer smokescreen.

Waking up to the news of a McCain/Palin win in November, would surely set off a cry of panic echoed around the world.

On edit" Not only are they McClueless, they are also McLiars. Oh that should really help restore investor confidence. I guess John and Sarah missed the "your word is your most valuable asset" lecture from their parents.

1. Palin's Economic Policies?
Some reporter should ask Governor Palin about what her thoughts are on the economy-- both at the national and international levels.

Has anyone heard her speak about how she proposes to address:
1.unemployment
2.trade deficit
3.crashg of financial institutions?
4.the fluctuating dollar

o.k., o.k., just kidding!
