Thank you for the acknowledgement.

There are no facts to support this speculation. For that matter there are no facts to deny it. I can’t predict the future. How can you?

It is for some market segments, but not for others. I’m sure you’ll agree that, for instance real estate, both consumer housing as well as commercial properties are severely impacted. These have a *huge* impact for the economy in general, and they are still mostly sucking value rather than creating it. On the other hand, Boeing has recently received orders for about 3 years’ worth of full production, and that’s just on the commercial side. Other jet plane manufacturers are mostly doing well. This shows things are about as good as they get for that segment. So while things are great for some, there are some large market segments which have a vast impact, that are still very broken. So again, the recession is not over for some of the biggest segments.
I’m also sure you’ll agree that this has been no average recession and the shortest way out remains in some ways uncertain.

Why do you speculate this?

Or do you take a shot and see if Willard will do what is necessary. Just because GWB was a complete idiot doesn't necessarily mean that Willard will be similar.

I have no idea what may be implied by “what is necessary.” As you agreed to above, the last 40 years legacy of the GOP’s doesn’t support a conclusion the R will do anything other than the same good ol’ boy BS which is their legacy and stated goals. They have absolutely no compelling reason to do anything different.

It seem rather obvious to me.

Me too.
