Yep, that is what my broker just told me. Rumors on the street are some internal polling showing the momentum has shifted dramatically to McCain now and those internal polls showing an even race, or even McCain up by a point.

McCain will win this election folks.

Now for the baseless, senseless, one-liner Obama paid supporter attacks.

Bring it!

Won't matter! What we do behind that curtain, in voting for McCain can't be dictated by you looney's, or a late nigh, infomercial traveling salesman called Obama. People are seeing through his fake utopia sales job! All he does is travel around and go down a list of "tell me sweet nothings" and you emotionally driven supporters buy it. Only problem for you is, there are still enough sensible Americans left, who don;t buy into the hype!

And what would be that good chance be? Maybe you could enlighten us on the electoral map? How can McCain win according to the electoral map?

I understand it to be exactly the opposite.

Market surges 900 points as Obama presidency nears.

Better get in while you can!

There's still a slim chance.

I predict you'll be very unhappy next week.

Never listen to anyone at Etrade.
Hint: If they are being paid minimum wage they are not really brokers.

Bloomberg.com: Worldwide

Others here on earth think it's because commercial paper is being made available again.

Who should I believe? Someone that attends psychic conventions or Bloomberg? That's a toughie.

From AP

NEW YORK — Wall Street made another big late-day move today, barreling higher and lifting the Dow Jones industrials around 900 points as bargain hunters, buying in anticipation of a Federal Reserve rate cut, grabbed stocks that have been pounded lower in recent sessions. All the major indexes were way up.

It has absolutely nothing to do with McCain. If your broker thinks McCain has a chance, I suggest you get a new one. If he can't read polls, electoral maps or sense national trends how is he going to make you money in the market?

I'm sure it had NOTHING to do with this:

The broad advance occurred as investors were gearing up for an expected interest-rate cut from the Federal Reserve. Policymakers are meeting for two days, with a decision on rates expected to be announced Wednesday afternoon.
Whats next, sun spot activity being linked to the Obama campaign?
