GE's Dilemma: Sensible Business vs. Rating at Any Cost

Rakesh, I agree with shorting GE and staying short. But shorting GE with a dividend of 7% and holding shorts till mid 2009 means you are going to PAY significant dividend shorting GE. However, shorting SPY and ETF are good idea or buying SKF is better. No dividends. How do you deal with paying the dividends for the shorts you hold?
