No, no, it's no good pleading with me, Hank, you're fired ... sacked ... dismissed without a character! 'Lord Gradgrind' Duff is not a man to suffer the sort of dereliction of duty that is evident from your 'graph of graphs' on the presidential election without retaliation. I tipped McCain to win and ever since he has dropped in your wretched polls like a sky-diver without a parachute. It can't be my mistake because I am all-wise and all-knowing - so it must be you! Of course, before I make up your final wage packet I will be deleting the cost of a bottle of 12-year-old Macallan which it looks as though I will have to send to 'Fallen Monk' in November - and I was really looking forward to tasting his Jack Daniels. I think I'll go out and thrash a few peasants to put me in a better mood!

Julia is correct...it is not over yet and I am not one to count my chickens. Gore won the popular vote in 2000 but a lot of good that did. I do have your bottle of Jack standing by just in case...but never fear I will insure it doesn't languish unwanted if not needed to settle our wager.

The way the money markets are going today, I'm not sure I'll have enough to pay the postage!

I will accept this banishment with as much good humor as I can, can you imagine the shame and disgust every time I check my own blog and see that chart.
But then, Obama will probably tell every one to increase the dole.
But there is hope, when http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTkIwR3i0RQ>these young kids are running things long after were gone.

Hank, on the basis that your link turned my tears of anguish - the market down again this morning - into tears of laughter, you are hereby re-instated. I'd vote for those beautiful girls anytime.
