Since its nomination: The DOW has actually lost 7,000 points.

Nonsense. How could the Dow drop 7000 points, It is at 6,625 now. When was it 13,625?

Last spring, when O locked up the nomination in the delegate count, the Dow was around 13K.

Look at the chart. June 2008 or maybe May 2008. Hillary was out and that is when it all started. Yes around 13,500 or so.

I hate Hillary but the markets could have lived with McCain or Hillary. The markets knew Obama is a marxist.

The Dow Jones all-time high is actually 14,164, though that was back on October 9, 2007.

Nevertheless, it was still a little above 13,000 as recently as May of last year.

May, 2008, the DJIA was at 14,164.

It began falling the moment the new fuhrer looked like he could win.

Here's a chart for you. Look closely. The DOW was around 12,500 when Obama got the nomination. It's now around 6,600 (close to 50 percent of wealth wiped out in just 9 months).

Roughly eight months ago?
