I just revisited the gumshoe guesses for Zacks top 10 for 2008. I think they were all correct guesses. What a blood-bath! Two broke even approximately. The rest ranged from awful to bridge-jumpers.

Not to mention he has the concept of energy independance. Which in short means use our own American know-how and resources (renewable and non) and stop using so much of the Bush-Saudi resources.

dmike4321, “Obama now proposes to tax and encumber middle income families and redistribute the wealth among those who have never worked or assumed a personal responsibity.” If you think $250k per yr is middle class, you’re half the problem.

“At the moment, we remain the greatest society, government, people, democracy, that has ever existed on the face of the earth. We shall not fall easily.” Spoken like a true Roman! Oh wait, what happened to them?

It’s really up in the air as to what exactly Obama will do, if he can truly do anything at all. He has been handed the biggest mess in American history and is expected to fix in 4 years!?!? There is no “magic bullet”, but Obama at least has the concept of helping the middle class. Buy giving to the middle class he increases their confidence to buy and b/c our country is 70% consumer driven that’s exactly what needs to happen to even start a recovery.

“If not Obama, who will lead us out of this crisis?” was a fair question. I had little confidence in either candidate’s ability to do it. With the millions of people in the U.S., those were the choices we had for President in the worst of times since the Depression????? Who’s running this country anyway?

I think you are the only one that has got it right. I believe we have hell to pay for the government’s recent bail-out- plans and those decisions will take years to play out. For many of us, it will not be a pleasant experience. Many of us have lost half or more of our life savings.

To further add to the dilima, Obama now proposes to tax and encumber middle income families and redistribute the wealth among those who have never worked or assumed a personal responsibity. Someone once said that, “whenever the people discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasury, the democracy is at an end.” Are we at that moment? The issue is at hand. My hope is that Obama will recoginze the gravity of the situation and seize upon this opportunity to lead us out of the desert. If he can’t do it in the next four years, there may be little left for future generations. NEVER FORGET THAT WE ALWAYS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO FAIL!!!!

At the moment, we remain the greatest society, government, people, democracy, that has ever existed on the face of the earth. We shall not fall easily.

Nevertheless, our future is in jeopordy. My prayer is that Obama will rise to the occassion, and, I believe that he will.

We need a new vision, new leadership and a new direction. And,we desperatly need a new worldly view.

I didn’t vote for Obama, but my thoughts, prayers, and hope rest with him!!!!!!

If not Obama, who will lead us out of this crisis??????

God bless Obama. . . .
