ADP "cancels" 365K private sector jobs.

... according to the revised methodology, the US has generated only 1.172MM jobs in 2012 through September, or in other words, a statistical "fix" magically eliminated over 30% of what the market had previously expected were job gains, a number which the incumbent president has certain taken advantage of on more than one occasions while campaigning.

People living this dream are not surprised. Yet another friend who voted Obama out of deluded hope has told me she's switched to Mitt.

In her words: I don't believe the BS from the Democrat party that Mitt is going to changed abortion law ( even if he could) but someone who knows how business works is needed.

Obama is bleeding these people.

I just love ZH, skewering balloons one pompous twit at a time. Yesterday, ZH ran an article from a Wall Street hedge fund manager, one Whitney Tilson (that's apparently a man, in case you're wondering) where he explained why Bambam was going to win. (Note to infrequent readers: ZH does not officially like Mitt; they just hate him a little less than Bambam.) Tyler took no end of glee in linking to an earlier ZH post from this year, where he noted that if you'd taken the OPPOSITE position from Mr. Tilson's two "best picks" (which were shorting Green Mountain Coffee Roasters and going long Netflix), you'd have made 50% on your cash in TWO WEEKS.

ZH's MO is "No fool left unspurned".

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
