Potentially Devastating News on the Obama Economy
American Thinker ^ | 08/18/2012 | William Tate

Posted on 08/18/2012 9:31:18 AM PDT by NMRed

The Gallup Organization had some bad news for Barack Obama on Friday. It's not that Obama fell behind Mitt Romney by two points in Gallup's daily tracking poll, although that couldn't have helped the the O-Team's spirits heading into the weekend. Between now and the election, polls are likely to be less stable than Joe Biden's thought process. The really bad news for the Chicago mob is that Gallup's unemployment survey shows the Obama economy is getting even worse. Gallup reported an uptick in joblessness in their latest survey of 30,000 households.

"With Gallup reporting on Friday that 1 in 4 American workers are either unemployed or underemployed -- not counting the millions of folks who've given up looking for work -- this is simply devastating news for the guy who said he'd be a one-termer if he didn't fix the economy."

I think that Romney will receive over 60% of the vote. Obama will tank. When he loses, he better be watched closely.

Yeah MSM... let’s not look at the millions of people this ignorant POS has adversely effected since ascending to the undeserved “big boy chair”; instead let’s lament how it effects the reelection poential for the POS that caused the destruction. Pathetic.

That was not what he meant by that statement. You obviously don't understand "nuance." /s

Obama will convince his parasitic base that evil, greedy conservatives are holding on to their ill-gotten gains for the purpose of destroying the economy and making him look bad.

Worse than that is the fact that they'll actually believe it.

Question now is will this administration be able to register (and transport to the polls) enough newly legalized voters in key districts in time.

Never mind the long term effects of minting new legal residents willy nilly, The Won must be returned to office!

Clinton did the same damn thing, and in the process made new citizens out of 60,000 criminals. We're still suffering for that stunt.

It is pretty much certain that there will be no run of great news the MSM can spin into Obama being the protector of the US Economy. That leaves them with “Bush left us such a mess we need 4 more years to fix it”...which doesn’t work as well 4 years later.

To me the key is that it won’t motivate THEIR supporters to go out and vote.

I think we are in for a complete turnout flipflop where Obama loses all the states he gained and then loses Wisconsin and maybe Iowa or New Hampshire much the same way McCain lost VA and NC.

"the Obama economy"

LOL.  What did the Useful Idiots expect from the progressive spawn of the Marxist Weather Underground?

 

 

Dn't need n Weatherman t see which waybama's wind

blws.

 

"Behind the Violence, Says Jane Alpert, Was Sex"

--November 09, 1981--
"The leaders of the Weather Underground, she believes, followed a similar pattern of constantly shifting sexual alliances..."

http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20080637,00.html

"He [Bill Ayers] also writes about the Weathermen's sexual experimentation as they tried to 'smash monogamy.' The Weathermen were 'an army of lovers,' he says, and describes having had different sexual partners, including his best male friend."

Source: New York Times, September 11, 2001: "No Regrets for a Love Of Explosives; In a Memoir of Sorts, a War Protester Talks of Life With the Weathermen"
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F02E1DE1438F932A2575AC0A9679C8B63&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=1

"...the Weathermen, when not engaged in group sex, committed such revolutionary acts as parading with a Viet Cong flag through a local park on Independence Day and spray-painting the walls of a high school with the slogans, "Off the Pigs," "Viet Cong Will Win," and "F#$k U.S. Imperialism."..."

Campus Wars: The Peace Movement At American State Universities in the Vietnam Era

 

"What happens next bears watching closely, as does the response of the president, ex-Speaker Pelosi, and others on the left.  Encouraged by leftists in the Democratic Party and funded by left-leaning nonprofit organizations and celebrity contributors, Occupy Wall Street may in time morph into something resembling the radical factions of the late 1960s and 1970s."

This is great news for Obama and the Dems!
More people to scare with their ads:

“Republicans will cut welfare, food stamps, unemployment insurance, Medicaid,... whatever.
So vote for Democrats or you’ll be starving!~”

I don't think R&R will get to 60% (I'm predicting 54-56) but I think they will wind up getting over 300EVs.

...and don't forget "we didn't know how awful the mess was that we inherited from Bush." That still plays well with the parasite and looter class.

Who knew that DEM stood for Department of Ex-Mexicans ? At least that is what was on the brochures they handed out at the football stadium. (/s.... maybe)

“Unemployment is up. Personal income is down. Bankruptcies are up. Real wages are down. The budget deficit is up. Housing starts are down. Fear is up. Hope is down. Everything that should be down is up; everything that should be up is down.”

This would make a great ad, but they show the sign language lady, not algore. I can’t find a video showing him.
