Should the Political Party in Power Effect your Savings?

Earlier this year, It got an e-mail from Bankrate. This e-mail was part of their newsletter series called Power Up.  These newsletters send out articles on content you might be interested in reading. This Power Up in particular had a topic that peaked my interest, with an article titled "The Post-Election Money Divide."Of course, I clicked the link and read the article.
