While Democrats and the lib media is rushing to spin the news as "voters don't give Bush credit for jobs," a recent AP-Ipsos poll shows that voters are FAST changing their minds, giving credit to Bush!
Skip the spin, and check out the real data. (At page 4)
On 5/7/2004, 43% of respondents approved of Bush's handling of the economy, while 55% disapproved. But on 6/11/2004, 47% aproved, 50% disapproved. That's a net nine percent increase! I guess that a month of positive jobs reports and other great economic news is having its effect, in spite of the Dems!
This is exactly what JF Kerry did not want to hear right now.
Cool.
Good -- we need two more months of that, pronto!
Actually, most of the inflation occuring in the economy is due to gas prices. The core price index remained relatively muted in April. Prices rose a more subdued 0.2% on nearly everything else in April. Inflation is beginning to be as overhyped this year as DEFLATION was being overhyped in the media last year. And again, most of it is due to gas prices which are now starting to come down. Watch inflation numbers drop significantly in May as a result.
Anyway, look to the media and their Democratic allies to talk down the economy RIGHT THROUGH ELECTION DAY, even though it is quite likely that come election day, Bush will have a significantly lower unemployment rate than Clinton did on re-election day in Nov. 1996.
That's fueling the stock market rally today.....
Nasdaq over 2000 again.
I predict Dow 11,000......Nas 2150.... by Labor Day..
. . . the poll gleaned the results you cited despite oversampling Democrats by 7 points:
Democrats -- 49% of sample
Republicans -- 42% of sample
But but but.. it can't beeeeeee!! Kerry said Bush ignores the middle class and Kerry ya know is a middle classer himself (cough cough ACK!!) sorry I had a hairball
John F Kerry: RUT-RO!
Remember one thing
Good for America, bad for kerry and the RAT party
Good for America, bad for kerry and the RAT party
Good for America, bad for kerry and the RAT party
Good for America, bad for kerry and the RAT party
Good for America, bad for kerry and the RAT party
Kerry is rapidly being dismantled by the FORSIGHTED RNC plan.And I don't mean campaign plan.I mean a plan to RUN THE FREAKING GOVT. in a straightforward and conservative way . Get andything done inside the beltway and you will be noted as a hard worker.Take on the Islamikazis, ENRON jerks, high taxes, flagging economy, French and German backstabbers, UN nerdowells, all at once AND SUCCEED at all of it, and you will earn a warm and fuzzy place in our nations history. LONG LIVE THE CONSERVATIVE REVOLUTION!!!!!LONG LIVE GWB!!!! GOD Bless RONALD W. REAGAN and his family!!!!
Obviously Fox must have hired lately by scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Others possibly went ahead earlier and hired balanced journalists.
How else can it be that they come up now with doomsday economic news forecasts.
not only RUT_RO but i think he is having a big ol
bill the cat PThBBBBAAACH ARGh attack.
I am still maintaining that unless some big event shakes up this election Bush will win handily.
I also heard Cavuto's group discussing the fact that it takes 2-3 months for the public to catch up to the changes taking place in the economy. Since there are good changes happening every month, I expect in a couple of months (just in time for the repub convention), the public will be well aware of what the tax cuts did for the economy, and will be telling their congresspeople to make the cuts permanent.
"as if it were reported anywhere near wher [sic] it really is"
NEWBIE!! You've only been here since yesterday .. and you're already talking down the economy. Go back to DU - they'll believe you - NOT ME!!
This admin - unlike the previous - does not publish PHONEY NUMBERS.
"I gave W a pass on the inflation thingy"
How big of you. I cannot be bothered to read such arrogance. Take your screed some other place.
