In the news:
Many economists see McCain better for stocks: poll
Is it just me, or isn’t that a bit like saying, “Many search engine experts see Microsoft better for linkspam: poll”? Not that I’m comparing the stock market to spam (although based on the contents of my Gmail junk filter, maybe I should) but I guess I’m just wondering if what these economists are reacting to is their impression that Obama will treat our economic problems as structural and attempt to initiate a serious, long-term effort to actually *solve* them, whereas McCain, being a bit older and less invested in life, the universe and everything, will just keep on patching shit up until he dies. In the early days, it must have been hard for Google to turn away people who wanted to trade cash for pagerank, but I’d assume that these days they’re pretty content with the choices they’ve made.
