Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Wednesday that he will try to push through a change to Senate rules that would limit the GOP’s ability to filibuster bills. Speaking in the wake of Tuesday’s election, which boosted Senate Democrats’ numbers slightly, Mr. Reid said he won’t end filibusters altogether but that the rules need to change so that the minority party cannot use the legislative…
Barack Obama may consider introducing a tax on carbon emissions to help cut the U.S. budget deficit after winning a second term as president, according to HSBC Holdings Plc. A tax starting at $20 a metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent and rising at about 6 percent a year could raise $154 billion by 2021,…
Wow…go a breakfast…futures tank. Sell the market proxy…not a biggie…sell probe of BAC. KORS continues to hold in extremely well.
I will not be in until market opens. Futures down a wee bit. They were down decently over night but back to flatline. Why Obama won? Exit poll…who do you blame for bad economy? Almost 55%-45 said Bush over Obama. Who do you think will handle deficit best? Only 48-47 for Romney over…

[email_link] After today, we get back into the real world. After today, we get back to seeing us in $16 trillion in debt with $20 trillion looming by the next election. After today, we get back to an impending fiscal cliff with both sides refusing to move. After today, we get back to watching the…
Election day is at hand…yippeee…no more robocalls and no more 1000 tv ads every day. I will hold my political views here. I did want to say that everyone predicting Obama this morning…except some pundits on the right. Everyone saying the hurricane changed things. Meanwhile, they are doing a terrible job after the hurricane but…
https://archives.warpradio.com/btr/InvestorsEdge/110518.mp3 JUST LETTING YOU KNOW My take is that Romney’s going to win Florida. If Romney wins Pennsylvania or Ohio, he is your next president. If he wins neither, I’d say that Obama will stay as the president for the next four years. It is that nip and tuck. I really don’t believe in the…
