Apparently to you it matters not who is running the government so long

Close. It makes *no difference* which party controls the government,
the misfeasance and malfeance will run rampant. The American public
will be politically emasculated as we are encouraged by the politicos
to spend our energies fighting among ourselves. We're so busy shilling
for our particular red or blue masters that we fail to hold them
accountable. How many times will we be fooled into believing that all
of our problems will be solved if we just switch the party in power?
(Perhaps infinitely).

And the boat business is cyclical. Like the rest of the economy.
Always has been and always will be, regardless which gang of thieves
rules in Washington DC. It's wonderful that big boats are selling
well, but it has nothing to do with who is in office.

The economic chickens are likely headed home to roost, and soon. When
they do, our time will be better spent figuring out how to right the
economic ship of state than trying to figure out what portion of the
blame belongs to the D's and what portion to the R's. The D's won't
fix it, they helped cause it. The R's won't fix it, they had a chance
for six years and instead of instilling some fiscal discipline went on
a record breaking spending spree that increased the national debt by
almost 50%. Neither party has any creds in this case. A pox on both.
