Fair 'N Balanced

I appreciate having Fox News around. They are the island of conservative news in an ocean of liberalism. But man they can just be nutty sometime. I was watching Cavuto's show which I usually like. But the topics today were a) Hillary down in polls, good for Market$ and b) can the US survive a mall terror attack?

I mean come on. The economy is in the shitter for the reasons I have written about a million times...housing crash, plunging dollar/$100 oil, near-hyper inflation. So when retailers come out with a 20% drop in Christmas (I mean non-denominational, winter festival) sales the so-called analysts will blame fear of terrorists and justify their BUY ratings on retailers nonetheless.

As far as Hillary goes, I think you'd have a hard time finding someone who loathes that woman more than me. However, once again Fox News is delusional. Her polls went down a teenie bit because she said she wants to give illegals licenses (or she doesn't or she did and she doesn't now or she didn't not want to not do it). And this according to the Cavuto Bunch means buy stocks because she won't win and if she doesn't win Wall St will feel better and hence markets will rise. It's such nonsense. Stock markets will tank with or without her. Wise up Cavuto.

Hillary will win the nomination. Unless some really freaky photos of her Bill and Al Sharpton come out, she will be the nominee. And given this is the Democrats we're talking about, the photos might actually help. And unless some sudden shift of political winds occurs, she will win the election as well. Sad but unfortunately true.
