Maybe ... but then again, if a portion of the economy goes south, and the GOP can push it on Obama, then it will help in November 2016.
Most GOP are wuzzies are scared of Obama shadow. Hell if Obama was to sign an executive order making ‘Moosehell’ the next president they would even have the balls to form and investigative committee.
Speaker John Boehner, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have only one ball between them and have to share it like the Grey Sisters sharing their one eye.
The only thing I would say to you, is I hate seeing folks out of work no matter who is in power.
