Very Serious Question
Why couldn't President Obama break 500? Why couldn't he close the deal?

He must have been too busy doing too much--err, not enough--and being too pessimistic--err, optimistic.

Probably paying too much attention to the ncaa brackets.
It's good, don't get me wrong. It would've been fodder for the spaghetti tossers. I don't view the dow as the be all and end all sign, but it certainly helps psychologically. For a while now, the dow has been indifferent to good news and punishing bad news. So this is welcome.

As someone whose portfolio mirrors the performance of the market, I'd be happy if it goes up the other 2 and five-eights on Tuesday rather than back down another hundred.

Obviously Obama has failed us in the past 9 weeks of his...9 week presidency...the fact that he has not broken 500 just shows how useless those president guys are!

i don't want to jinx anything but if the Dow has another good day tomorrow we'd be higher than on inauguration day. I'm POSITIVE Fox, MSNBC and the others will specifically credit Obama for that, considering the blame they heaped upon him when it was tanking.

FE-
That was not a literal statement. Michele Bachmann was calling for an all out opposition, not an actual armed uprising

Face it, Bob, he may never be able to close the deal.
