I think the unemployment rate in Michigan is 15.1%.
Yeah... the evil rich Republicans were deliberately holding back on the jobs! /s
Strickland is a pro-tax, pro-abortion, pro-gay, liberal democrat.
What more really needs to be said?
If they get their tax increases they think will turn this around, then no one should be surprised if it hits 20%.
It helps Kasich and Rob Portman big time.
Hope and Change, Baby ! Hope and Change !!"
Good post.
Tell me about it.
I’ve inherited the family home in Cleveland and trying to sell it is a nightmare.
The first thing the city does is come in and inspect from top to bottom.
They write up everything that they feel is wrong, and you either have to fix it before selling or get estimates from “approved” contractors (wink wink) and post a bond of 120% of the estimates.
If it drops to 10.9% watch the MSM proclaim it to be proof of Obama’s brilliant vision.
So... hows that hope and change workin in Ohio?
Yea.
Don’t trust anything a Democrat says. They only know how to run stuff into the ground. Or lower.
Oregon is about 13% officially. Unofficially, in some cities its as high as 25%.

That’s why I could never figure out when I would see he is harmless and hasn’t been that bad which led me to believe it had to be moles.
Duh, yes.
The neurons aren’t what they used to be.
At least I voted for the right guy.
Um, that is “bellwether”.
From wikipedia:
A bellwether is any entity in a given arena that serves to create or influence trends or to presage future happenings.
The term is derived from the Middle English bellewether and refers to the practice of placing a bell around the neck of a castrated ram (a wether) leading its flock of sheep. The movements of the flock could be noted by hearing the bell before the flock was in sight.
