The biggest problem with Obama is that “trickle down economics” will not work under him. He will never get the much-needed support of corporate America. He will lose Tuesday I am counting on that, just as Gore lost before him.
If you don’t have the major corporations and the special interest lobbies writing your policy, you have no real platform.
Watch the payout to the American car companies who are blaming the taxpayers for not buying their shit. They are already crying they are not getting enough.
Plus, we still have the airlines and beyond. When they need to cut costs, they take your job and keep their bloated salary. They know what is necessary and good for the country.
We haven’t even begun to see all the corporate handouts that will be paid out over the next 4 years to “start”. Right now the banks are using your hard earned tax-money to buy more capital acquisitions and close down the smaller neighborhood banks, just like the corner drug store gave way to Longs Drugs and Wal-Mart.
The big money banks and financial institutions are also reviewing that protected pile of bonuses they WILL hand out, after they told you the 700 billion was to save the economy.
But that is what makes America great! They have the ability to rob the simple fools who talk of their freedom, while they are being robbed.
Like a frog in a pot of ever warming water. There is always an ever growing supply of taxpayers to pay their way.
It really is your fault you don’t work on Wall-Street, so don’t cry about salaries and bonuses that go into the hundreds of millions. They need you to pay taxes and bail them out.
Look at AIG, they got caught blowing a half a billion dollars of YOUR money on a high priced party. But did that stop their next payment? Hell no, that paid for a hunting trip instead.
I am waiting to laugh on Tuesday, mark my words McCain will win. And then you will see the corporate bail-out complete with all “new” government contractors to handle "managing the payouts for a cost of billions.

Paragraph 10 line 1 should be edited to read half a million. It is still despicable.
Everything you just listed will go under Obama also. The only difference is the major players will need more money since they will be paying more in taxes, as well as more jobs cut due to less revenue coming in.
What makes you think Obamas overregulation of everything is going to fix things? Isn’t it the government(i.e. the same house and senate) that will be in charge of the over sight? The same government that created this quagmire. You really trust Barney Frank with your money?
