Well I think it would a lot of people post yesterday member of the market had a good rally yesterday yes he was up about -- -- -- percent. A lot of people yesterday were saying well. Whoever wins but at least we're gonna have some closure to this race will have a you know -- end the uncertainty over. Who's gonna take control so so could rally yesterday beating incidents. And I think may issue now you wake up and see okay that the senate is so controlled by Democrats yeah. They're so Democrat in the White House but he's the Republicans are still controlled House of Representatives. So it's basically we're back to square warning his followers the gridlock that we've seen all year regarding the budget. And you know the fiscal cliff is you know that the sort of -- that these hanging over the market right now for prologue but I think investors that sort of you know. Price and a happy resolution to this fiscal cliff and now the election comes and goes pretty much where we -- as far as the numbers in each of the chambers you know the poverty in the White House pretty much back to square one where we started. And the pressure now really goes to to the party leaders to really get together and resolve this the school but issue. How does that get resolved because that's hanging that's that's less than two months away our tax rates go up military spending gets cut. Medicare it's got to mean drastic measures occur if if this if we go over the fiscal cliff we go into another recession. That's what I you know a lot of economists are that it would create a recession you know a lot has changed in the last few weeks I've been hurt gain. You know that the question marks about that affect on -- cheeky or are still pretty open it -- at least you know obviously we're gonna get a little bit of it it.

All eyes and beyond that he closed the deal conciliatory here is he is still be our art line about you know Republicans obviously -- trying to preserve the bush tax cut. You probably be conciliatory as long as he gets to deal with Geithner right they need it seems like -- Being -- Geithner. Might be able to work through this but the president's got a lot of political capital he's gonna want his agenda that. He does yeah and edit you know it it's.

It really is crunch time now two months to to really get as a result. Uncertainty right now the Wall Street does not like uncertainty the we've got it now. Read that and it might be back in the you know in August last year when everyone -- -- Book on the some resolutions. So we you know. That the deadlock that caused. Credit rating to -- well last year and you know. -- it could have a fetus were forced. Like you know he's -- is a very acrimonious. Hit it on both sides.
