Will Dividend ETFs Be Crushed By An Obama Presidency?

Stop whining. The stock market always does better under Democratic presidents. The last seven years have not been the market's finest.

What is most likely to happen is that the favorable tax treatment of dividends will be capped, so that small fry will be completely protected and only the biggest players will have to face a higher rate, which is as it should be. It is not the government's role to protect the rich from everybody else, though Bush preaches otherwise.
