I’ve previously explained the DC Ticker I compile most days, which is now being featured on ABC News’ website show, Political Punch, hosted by Jake Tapper. Here are the final (and perhaps too obvious) pre-election picks featured on this week’s PP:
* Pelosi, sell. The first woman to become Speaker of the House—and the first woman, it seems, to lose the position.
* Reid, sell. Even if the Senate majority leader beats Sharron Angle, he’s so weakened that some Democrats will consider a mutiny.
* David Axelrod, sell. Blame the message man.
* Obama, sell. Is the Age of Obama over? How does he change the script for Act II?
* Hillary Clinton, buy. In a clever move, she left town for two weeks. So it isn’t about her.
