They’ll keep on insisting that we’re in a recovery right up thru Nov 2012. Then watch all hell break loose.
The exact reason why every Republican operative, be they a candidate, spokesperson, or pundit MUST constantly use the phrase ‘Obama Depression’. Once it is used over and over, it becomes reality. Much like ‘Bush lied about WMD’.
The best part is that it IS reality! There are more than 20 million Americans out of work. Real unemployment is at 18% or higher. Housing is in the toilet with more loss of equity than during the last Democrat Depression. Also jobs are being shed at a rate of close to 2 million a month with new Unemployment claims above 400K for the last six months.
The economy is a disaster and all the Republicans have to do is make the Democrats own what they wrought. We are witnessing a financial reckoning not scene in decades and if played properly, with bravery, we will landslide Obama and the Democrats.
