I think the average person see 7.8 unemployemnt and thinks this is still pretty high and this wont’ have that much affect on race.. It is a marcoeconomic number and most people live in a mirco economic world, which is still bad.

What you are saying is true to a point. BUT, Most people are working. They can only look at these things anecdotal. I am working =, but my neighbor isn't. My brother in law isn't working and hasn't been in several years even though he was once a top producer in his field, BUT he did start a new COMMISSION ONLY job selling door to door so even though he makes no money and his house is in foreclosure, he would be better off if he wasn't so lazy and was more like me.

It is a strange World we live in. The franchise was never intended to be given to the entire population. The poorly educated where never supposed to vote because they where not sophisticated enough to understand the real issues. The non land owners where never supposed to vote because they had ‘no skin in the game’. Women where never supposed to vote because they are creatures driven by emotions instead of logic.

Say all you want about our Founding Fathers, but they understood human nature and strives to prevent the worst aspects of that nature from destroying our Republic.

My answer is this:

“7.8% unemployment is still 7.8% worth of Americans with names, faces, families, mortgages, and bills piling up that are suffering - and that 7.8% is suffering because of YOUR policies, and failure as the president, and your party’s failure as a whole. This is what happens when democrats run things. You had your shot, and you messed it up. It’s time for the adults to be back in charge.”

At least, that’s what I’d hit Ohole with.
