I have a few friends in that 1% group. They do take their investment money off shore when the taxes go up. But, if the taxes stay down, they invest in America. It is really pretty simple behavior, to observe.
Three days ago this was a close election. A statistical dead-heat. After the VP debate in St. Louis, the election will be a land-slide. Mrs. Palin will win or loose the election for John McCain.
No medicine-marvel, this IS the worst election in 100 years. Period.

You are probably right, but I couldn't help myself.
I was raised by self-sufficient New-Deal democrats. I wish we could see more people like them today.
medicineman, why do you offer this charade. You clearly understand that the clintons and bushs committed treason. All these people have engaged in the hi-jacking of classified secrets, patents, intellectual property and the American economy. clintons and bushs act like mortal enemies but are...
