		<description>&lt;p&gt;“IIRC, it was Bear Stearns that Cramer issued a buy signal on 4 days before it had to be bailed out. Not sure on the rest of his record, but that bad call really stands out.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remember, Buy Low…Sell High. If you have money in stocks and don’t desperately need it to survive or are going to have to withdraw it in the next year or two…probably best to stay in. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In fact, one thing that Obama should do is allow people who are retiring to be able to maintain their money in their 401K accounts for a couple of years after retirement, or to only remove some of it. That would prevent retirees from having to take major losses on their accounts when the markets are in decline.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;“Brings up Republican base and their potential rejection of a Democratic administration. Kookie says, both sides are guilty, blah, blah, blah. Krugman replied, “I reject the equivalency.””&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I betcha that Kookie was cheerleading these policies as they were being put into place. I wonder if anyone can find her talking about how great the housing bubble was, how interest rates were allowing folks to own houses, and just how thrilling the economy was.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Heheh, good point. I guess that is why it can be best to say little and have people really listen when you do speak up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Calling on 50 stocks a day…wonder what his error rate is. Or if people go strictly on his word or use it as a tool (or buy quick, get the Cramer bounce and then sell).&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Barry over at the Big Picture said that, since Cramer’s been wrong so often, this should be considered a buy signal.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Problem with many rabid supporters is that they do not want to hear the facts - some want to be told what to believe, others just want to know what the talking points are (that is to say they do not believe them, just use them as a set of useful stuff to say for the moment).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This impacts both sides, but I think we have clearly seen that vastly more Republics will never challange their own side. “Funny” enought that recently one would have to think they are so concerned over McCain-Palin that many hard-core have actually come out against McCain (George Will, etc, even Patreus with his choice of words on planning and strategy/tactics) - not sure if its knowing the winning side and not wanting to be left hanging on the edge or actual concern with what McCain-Palin would mean.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I mean HELLO - McCain chose a person who could (yes a big if, but could) be in JAIL/charged when the election takes place.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;This was sick, and it was a town hall “question” so McCain was about 4 feet from her face when this went down.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;OT:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kramer said to talk all money out of stocks. They are trying to bash him now, but CNN anchor saying you would have saved 15% (so far).&lt;/p&gt;</description>
