A surefire indicator of hubris in American business is the misbegotten belief that success in one enterprise is a predictor of likely success in another, unrelated one.

It's a sign of confidence, not desperation. If the response from the conservative base is any inHoney, I Shrunk the Startups!
Barack Obama and John McCain are going to spend the next two months arguing over the economy, mostly about how to foster innovation. The politicians blame politics.
