CPI: The (Hillary) Clinton Price Index
Is the stock market voting for a continuation of the Obama-Hillary presidential brawl? Larry Kudlow has dubbed this the Clinton Price Index, meaning that Hillary's electoral fortunes are affecting the price of stock indexes under the theory that the longer the race goes on, the better the chance for a McCain victory and a continuation of low capital-gains-tax rates. It's a theory. The fine blog Redlegs Rant has followed up on this:
April 22: Obama gets crushed in PA
April 23: Stocks rise
May 6: Obama wins big in NC
May 7: Stocks plunge
May 13: Obama gets crushed in WV
May 14: Stocks rise
DISCLAIMER: Correlation is not causation. But it looks as if investors (100 million-plus strong in this great country) might have a dog in this fight, no?

Ridiculous
The Hillary index is $20,000,000 debt and continuing to campaign to get the debt paid off before the Democratic Convention.
Go Hillary!
Although both Obama and Clinton have very similar political platforms I believe that HIllary is the more experienced candidate of the two. I agree with eariler comments--I hope the super delegates will open their eyes and get behind Clinton before it's too late. I think she is the right person for the task and can bet McCain in the fall.
I would also like to add that in my opinion and based on my ongoing observations the media (some, not all) has been extremely biased toward her compared to Obama and are partly to blame for her low performance in some of the states I believe she could have and should have won. So I say Go Hillary, don't quit! I admire your strength and courage, which is one of the reasons why I think you should be president.
