Wall Street Executives Thrive Under Obama But Still Won't Support Him


Illogical wishful thinking.



Obama (geithner, et. al.) is the very personific­ation of "business as usual." He is weak when confronted and they know that the President prostrates himself regularly in his obsessive pursuit of "middle ground." They've gotten everything they've wanted in the process.



No, what they see in romney is a direct conduit to social security money and everything else they could ever want in their wildest, stickiest dreams. With Obama, the street has maintained their excess. But with romney, they will have a chance to multiply their income - maybe even by orders of magnitude.



So it is only logical to expect the wall streeters to be enthusiast­ically supporting romney at this point. But believing that it's because they're suddenly terrified of what the President MAY do is simply unrealisti­c.



Documented evidence exists to suggest that the streeters WERE scared of the President early in Obama's tenure. But when he demonstrat­ed his abject weakness during the infamous "13 Bankers" meeting, they went right back to business as usual. They have no fear of Obama - none.



In fact, you could rationally argue that it's their complete lack of respect for Obama that has made them so brazenly supporting romney - they don't believe there will be any retributio­n from the President if he is re-elected­.
