Biotech Values

We're not supposed to get political here...but from what I understand Edwards has based his platform on 1) not reducing spending; 2) focusing on healthcare; 3) ending the 15% rate. All in all, I would say this is probably not the best news for investors, and really not good news for the biotech/pharma industry.

On the other hand, the Republican candidates universally want to continue spending our way into even more massive debt on war. So no improvement there either, from an economic standpoint.

Just offhand, I have to say this is one of the most unappetizing presidential elections in recent history. The Democrats are only marginally more appealing than the Republicans...and that's coming from a Democrat.
