What's your take on Capital One (COF Quote)?

-- Flynn

Jim Cramer: I am a big fan of Capital One, and I even own the stock for my charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS. Given how unpredictable retail is this holiday season, I believe the credit card companies are the way to play consumers throwing money around on big-screen televisions and new clothes. And in any case, Capital One is dirt cheap.
