What's the saying "It will get worse before it gets better" I think that is what's in store for us. :( I'm not sure who will be leading the Country and not sure it will make one bit of difference. :-5
ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

Presidential candidates are notorius for making alot of promises during the campaign........and not following through after election. More often than not, it's the Senate and/or the House that hinders any new plan.

I see higher taxes, the war in Iraq continuing on, more hard times for us. So "fasten your seatbelt........it's going to be a bumpy night".

I'll take a stab at it--------First, not because I like him, but I think we will have our first African American President. Secondly----I think we will be in worse shape economically, than we are now with even higher prices coming for gasoline, home heating oil, food, medical care and prescriptions. Thirdly, I think home values will continue to decline as will all investments including 401K's, IRA's. Fourth------I think we will all be paying increased taxes including different state taxes and sales taxes. There is no tooth fairy to pay for all the financial mis management of the past 15 years

and now it's time to fork up the bucks. How long will it last? I am thinking like 5 years minimum.

And all this from a guy that is a real optimist.
