Have you heard of the old Chinese curse? "May you life in interesting times." Worst curse in the culture. Yep!
Are we scared yet?
What is scarier, the financial meltdown or the election?
Hmm, I'm not really sure. I'm plenty scared.
This will be a historic election. Some kind of record will be made. A black president or a woman vice president. The last of the old guard and the first of the new will battle it out. Winner take all. All the glory and all the problems.
Close your eyes, hold your nose and vote.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain! The great and wonderful OZ has all the answers. One way or another, we're off to see the wizard. 700 billion dollars of yellow brick road, our grandchildren will be paying for this.
Thanks Wall Street! Take a week at the spa on us.
