[responding to a viewer's call-in question about Visa (V)]
I know better than to deal with a company that's in the cross hairs of the federal government. So, you know what? My 3-5 year outlook is deeply controlled by a couple of senators. I don't want any of my stocks to have anything to do with a couple of senators-- they can do whatever they want!
My answer to Visa is I can't own it, because I can't model what a senator from Illinois is going to do to a company.
