Lehman and Lynch are small potatoes compared to AIG,
I hope they find a solution that doesn't just push the
worst off until after the election....

We're gonna be in the red zone for at least another couple of years, between this from the housing market and fuel prices we're really getting fucked. If the circumstances arise for Osama, I hope his plan for "change" is anything but a cheap slogan.

I'm thinking the someone will rescue AIG. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.




**edit** Moody's just down graded AIG's rating to A2
