1. Anyone know the last time it was below 10,000?

This sure is proof that *'s economic plan is working, ha!

[Zorra]

5. It dropped below 10,000 yesterday. Closed at 10,002.

Before that I believe it dropped below 10,000 on Sept. 26 or 27.

2. Their worst nightmare

right before the elections is happening. Gasoline back to over $2, oil well over $50/bbl, the market is below 10K, bad job reports

4. gasoline+oil+economy...maybe b* DID hit the trifecta...

just not a good one.

3. Plus this is in US dollars

if you look at the dow priced in euros (the dollar has declined 25% in two years) the Dow is basically where it was 2 years ago -- 8,000.

7. I'm hearing on rumors that Bush is ill...

... an awful lot of people noticed how the left (stage right) side of his mouth was sagging yesterday -- can you say stroke, paralysis or some other serious medical condition? Remember how the Bush Boy postponed his annual physical until after the election, using the campaign as an excuse.

And just what ws it that El Bushbo wanted to talk so urgently to Sen. Kerry about after last night's debate? I'm guessing it's not an early meeting of their transition teams...

8. that was weird, yes

I wondered what Bush was laying on him.

I think when Kerry compliments Bush it throws him off, because the narcissist in Bush makes him feel so appreciative for the praise. It makes him reel, I think.

10. The tanking economy can't possibly be Bush's fault.

After all, it started to decline six months before the (S)election. I heard him say so at the debate so it must be true. Never mind that he's had four years to make it better, he's had turrists to catch. It's hard work.
