Guess that means the Democrats will have to go from saying “Bush is wrecking the investments of little old ladies by causing the stock market to fall” to “Bush is ushering in an era of greed.”
A simple TV & radio ad campaign touting the numerous successes over the past 5 years (with GOP policies at the base) would do a tremendous amount for both continued consumer confidence....but more importantly for taking on the DEMs/MSM with regard to this issue.
It would boost the GOP "economy" numbers and make the DEMs fight from the premise that they don't want to continue GDP growth, economic expansion, lower federal taxes, low interest rates, low unemployment, etc, etc.
I just read this thread you referenced :

I should be more clear....the options were based on that target NOT being attacked and the end result shaking up the world financial markets.
It’s sure possible. There was another story, you may recall, linked below, about Iranian and Syrian technicians being killed in a chemical weapon accident in Syria July 23. The “mystery trader” may have been counting on an attack by Syria in September that could have resulted in a massive response, even nuclear, by Israel.
