William, I certainly have no partisan stake in this debate but I understand market mechanics. You really cannot put any blame on Obama for the current state of the markets. The markets had already fallen between 40% and 45% from their peaks before he even stepped foot into the White House. The state of the market and their continued fall has much more to do with underlying causes started years ago than what he says or does today. You cannot fix this problem so fast and it will take time for any adminsirtation (rep or dem) to turn this around.

And those who lost money in the markets and now look for a scape goat along partisan lines - too bad. You pays your money and you takes your chances. The markets are risk based investments, not guarantees.
