Who knows. We keep hitting new bottoms each week in the DOW. It will probably take till the end of 2011 or mid 2012 before we bottom out and begin to recover. From what I read, things are so ingrained in the economy that this stimulus will do little to help us recover. The credit markets will correct themselves in three years or so. By that time, who knows what the mood of the country is in. I can't see us giving Obama as much time as we gave FDR to fumble around before we got into WWII.
