I'd say a Romney win would have the most negative impact for the sector.

if the expected cuts to government spending come to fruition.

On the other hand, if Obama can't break the legislative gridlock to get the sequester and expiring tax cut issues sorted before year end, that would also be catastrophic regardless of who wins the election.

  - this is what I think, too, in the long run. but we wouldn't see that six weeks after the election. - amanda Jul 2, 11:10 8
    - That's true. Romney's would simply respond that the private sector's job creation should be strong enough to pick up that slack. - con_carne Jul 2, 11:27 6
      - Corporate profits may be high, but that doesn't oblige companies to hire more people. - Roger More Jul 2, 11:33 5
        
        I couldn't agree more. Unfortunately, we have plenty of citizens who think the government is good for nothing. -- nm - con_carne Jul 2, 11:40 2
        
        If only they knew what companies were like. -- nm - Roger More Jul 2, 11:44

        obviously we need to cut taxes on the rich, that'll fix everything! -- nm - znufrii Jul 2, 11:35 1
        
        I know you're joking, but I should make it clear that I don't believe this is the answer -- nm - Roger More Jul 2, 11:40
    - this is true. - znufrii Jul 2, 11:11
