If the Democrats win the upcoming elections, all sorts of bad things will happen. Taxes will go up, again, the AMT will not be cut back, etc.
If the Pubbies win (bigtime), I am back in the market, I think.
I wouldn't mention the AMT here. A thread got pulled a couple of days ago because someone mentioned that Ronald Reagan had signed that law. (At least "Thanks Ronnie" was the last comment on the thread before it got pulled.)
