Maryland Democratic Gov. Martin O'Malley said Sunday that Americans are not better off under President Obama than they were four years ago, a somewhat startling admission that Republicans and Mitt Romney immediately pounced on.
On CBS's "Face the Nation" Sunday morning, host Bob Schieffer asked O'Malley if he can "honestly say that people are better off today than they were four years ago."
"No," O'Malley said, "but that's not the question of this election."
"The question," he continued, "without a doubt, we are not as well off as we were before George Bush brought us the Bush job losses, the Bush recession, the Bush deficits, the series of desert wars, charged for the first time to credit cards, the national credit card..." "George Bush is not on the ballots," Schieffer quipped.
The first sentence was good enough for the Romney campaign. It's a somewhat baffling admission because the Obama campaign has explicitly avoided giving a "Yes" or "No" answer to the question during the campaign in hopes of avoiding a bad soundbite.
That was the case on both ABC's "This Week" and "Fox News Sunday," where advisers David Plouffe and David Axelrod both avoided a direct answer.

The 'big tent' republicans gave cover for the likes of Foley, and the pervert liberals used Foley to 'flash' those values voters. Neither the 'big tent' GOP -e- or Foley have ever taken responsibility for giving the perverts leadership positions undercover. The big dollar yackers still point an ugly accusing finger to the 'values' voters that found the two faced GOP too disgusting to get out the vote.
And then Nanny the RED Pewlouse took over the people's House and the rest is history.
No, it’s...
“What’s in your wallet?”
I disagree with your post. A penis and teticles are quite necessary for a male. Your Davids could get along perfectly well without either, or both. Please cease and desist from disparaging such honorable male organs in the future.
Thank you
Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley “ “There is no one who will have his boot further up Pepco’s behind or BGE’s than I will,” O’Malley said. “We’ve got a lot of people who are suffering right now.” ...... not considering how dangerous the job is for those BG&E, PEPCO workers working on all those downed power lines after that storm.
Are you saying Katie O’Malley is the daughter of Joseph Curran?
The Wars, that both Democrats and Republicans supported and Voted for in the House and Senate “cost” about $100 Billion a year.
Since Obama was elected, we have added nearly 40,000 Federal Workers. Wonder how much they cost a year?
Bingo!
I have to wonder how they pay these extra 40K workers with out a Federal Budget.
They haven’t passed a federal budget in 3 years. Continuing resolutions are supposed to continue to fund government at the previous budget’s funding levels.
So how can an agency add employees and only spend money at the previous funding level?
I don’t see how it can be done.
You must be referring to “Father” Joe Curran - another louse!
The Rats can’t take blame for anything can they? Always pointing the finger at someone else......
O’Malley looks like the prototypical liberal know-it-all little f**ktard. HOPEFULLY, the populace would have had enough of that with Soetoro...
My generally negative outlook is that who-ever is POTUS will be less popular in 4 years than they are now, So if Obama was re-elected then another Democrat running in 2016 wouldn't fair so well. Of course that would be because things will be bad and Obama would be out of excuses.
Remember how Republicans excuses were laughed at in 2008 election(except Republican media) . "It wasn't Bush's fault because he lost the congress his last two years and he inherited Clinton's and Carter's policies" just didn't work after his 8 years.
When I heard he was interested I thought he was just the kind of scumsucking a$$**** that were likely to go with. He reminds me of Rod Blagovevich with his naked, unctuous ambition.
Their list of “heavyweights” is thin after Hillary.
Worthless scion Cuomo Jr. is another name that’s been bandied about.
