McCain Plummets With Stocks

|

John McCain unleashed a fusillade of attacks on Barack Obama today (mysterious background, shady Palestinian donors, etc), trying to change the subject from the economy. Taking a page out of Karl Rove's playbook, Obama's campaign responded by saying that John McCain was "angry" and "frustrated."

In any event: Yesterday's uptick in McCain's odds of winning the presidency is a memory.  After today's stock-market collapse, he's back down to 31.5% on Intrade. (Still better than a couple of days ago, though, when he bottomed at 30.3%).

Obama going to lose this election. How about posting some anti-obama stuff for a change.

We wouldn't be in this mess if they had listened to McCain in 2006, but Democrats blocked the House vote on reform of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

This is FACT. Period.

Search youtube for 'democrats covering' and watch how many dems in 2004, including the criminal Raines saying how great things are! Meanwhile Republicans are warning of dire problems ahead for lack of reform on the democratic run oversight committees. Again, fact.

This is plain fact. Liberals need to take the blinders off and realize who is really to blame here. Push the button for Obama and kiss your job goodbye.

Not to mention that Joe Biden referenced a diner in his debate that closed 25+ years ago, but no one in the liberal media calls him out.

Liberals, hear what they want to hear.

Yes, demos very weak on Fannie, Freddie.

ever think it could be the other way around? Maybe the stocks are crashing on the anticipation of an Obama victory rather than the cause of Mccain's slide.

just a thought.

I think McCain is following stocks down, and I think there are more pressing financial concerns than Obama getting elected. But certainly could be wrong.

Contrarian, judging by your name, I am guessing that you are just having fun.

But to address that point, to suggest that the global markets taking a beating today, with many of the markets faring much worse than how the U.S. markets closed, is being caused by an anticipation of Obama winning rather than the global credit crisis is laughable.

And an Economist (a conservative publication) survey of economists show that they strongly favor Obama's economic policies: http://www.economist.com/world/unitedstates/displaystory.cfm?story_id=12342127

It could be that people are finally realizing that the interests of fundamentalists and creationists are not particularly aligned with a strong economy after all.

Hmmm..... WOW!! Cuntrarian are you serious?!

Buy low sell high is a bankrupt strategy when the underlying 'equity' is the most over-sharpened of the falling knifes.

Also, the Intrade indicators are fascinating. I was not familiar with the market prior to reading AI.

Intrade is only market maker showing McCain at above 30%. Betfair, ourselves (Hubdub) and UK bookmakers are showing him at around 23% and falling fast. This page has links to all the sites that are trading the presidential contract: http://www.hubdub.com/m17795/Who_will_win_the_2008_US_Presidential_Election

McCain knows he is becoming a long shot which means he has to radically change the conversation (and pray for an economic miracle).
