A Barack O Bottom?
It is no secret that I think the Election of Barack O Socialist is going to create a very dark time in American history. I also am smart/honest enough to point out any positive things that I see happening along the way. There were a couple this week.
First, about 70% of the economic crisis is a crisis of “confidence”. When banks don’t know who to trust of how to value the credit of a co-party they simply don’t loan money. Confidence and “Hope” are close cousins. So when the candidate of “Hope” wins, does “confidence” get a lift? I have to report yes in my little corner of the world. I have three pieces of real estate that are on the market. For the last 3 months I have gotten basically zero interest as everyone hunkered down waiting for the election. The day after the election I received five new inquiries on those properties. Something changed. Something got those people out of their chairs and back into the market looking to put new money to work. Maybe it was “Hope”. I sure “hope” so. Maybe simply electing a new face can create a Barack O Bottom. Lets hope so…

Interesting. You write of a "dark" time in this post, and use the word "tansition" in the previous one.
Are these deliberate wisecracks about Obama's race?
