Maybe its just a coincidence, but...
Has anyone noticed that less than 24 hours since Rachel Maddow reported that the GOP moneybag puppet masters had gotten cold feet about the budget crisis, Boehner decided to sue for peace and have a "conversation" with the Great Satan himself?
And immediately the Dow rebounded several hundred points.
Yeah, I know, the correlation is a flimsy one, but sometimes the most obvious answer is the right one.
