Thanks for your comment! I have looked into stable income funds and have created a new post discussing the benefits. Feel free to check it out.

Because of the economic times right now and the volatility of the market, if you believe that the market will still take a toll downwards I would suggest protecting your future contributions in your 401k. Keep the current investments you have. Change your future investment contribution into stable income. Stable income keeps the value at $1. Its a safer investment than the mutual funds that are subjected to the market.

I just wanted to add that for 2008, contributions are limited to a max of $15,500.
