I'll give Cramer this - he has balls. He knows he could get ripped to shreds by Stewart and the audience would love to see his blood run across the floor in rivers. But he's betting that Stewart and the Daily Show will play gentle with him because that's what interview shows do when they get the object of their affection in the studio.

President Obama's "daily tracking poll" (a.k.a DJIA) closed up today.
It is now down only 29% since he was elected!
Posted by Bagley at March 11, 2009 02:19 PMTurkana, you're basically a snitch's apprentice. You should care more about what a liar this President is every day of the week than about some half-crazed Big Media contrarian.
Posted by Toby Petzold at March 11, 2009 02:33 PMboggled,
obama's tracking poll is still huge, actually. and you do realize that the dow is a mess he inherited. which is what defines you as a troll, btw.
Posted by Turkana at March 11, 2009 02:35 PM"...the dow is a mess he inherited."
Yes, he did come to office with a big mess on his hands, but the financial markets are reacting to how he has decided to address the problems.
So far -- it is clear -- that the financial markets are not impressed. Possibly, it is better to stipulate that the "economy" has little faith in this President being able to do much more than further damage.

"Don't blame us...we're incompetent" !
By the time this fours years is over, George Bush may very well be worthy of Mount Rushmore status.
Posted by redsneakers at March 11, 2009 04:02 PMJeez, the poor loser trolls are out tonight.
Posted by Judith at March 11, 2009 06:36 PMCramer reminds me of a guy running a shell game with the pea up his ass.
Has this become troll town?
TLC = trolls lie continuously.
And I thought the safe haven on the Pakistan border was bad.
Posted by TIKI AL at March 11, 2009 06:39 PMWow, can you say 0 to "look over there!"?
Classic trolling.
Posted by idiosynchronic at March 11, 2009 06:44 PMYou can stop trying to create our reality. It doesn't work anymore, if it ever did.
After Barack Obama's first six weeks as president, the American public's attitudes about the two political parties couldn't be more different, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds.
Despite the country's struggling economy and vocal opposition to some of his policies, President Obama's favorability rating is at an all-time high. Two-thirds feel hopeful about his leadership and six in 10 approve of the job he's doing in the White House.
"What is amazing here is how much political capital Obama has spent in the first six weeks," said Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart, who conducted this survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff. "And against that, he stands at the end of this six weeks with as much or more capital in the bank."
By comparison, the Republican Party — which resisted Obama's recently passed stimulus plan and has criticized the spending in his budget — finds its favorability at an all-time low. It also receives most of the blame for the current partisanship in Washington and trails the Democrats by nearly 30 percentage points on the question of which party could best lead the nation out of recession.
I'm not leaving the link, like the trolls.
Up to 70%.
Nice try Baggy.
Posted by Judith at March 11, 2009 06:48 PMWow. Cramer is blaming Obama for the tanking DOW but here he is admitting that he and his Wall Street asshat buddies have gamed the markets without caring a damn about the money of the average citizen invested in those companies. Go to hell trolls!
