Presidential elections often become a referendum on the economy, with the party of the White House incumbent assigned the credit or the blame for whatever happens in the economy.

I rest my case.
Hahahahaha! There’s nothing wrong with this economy!! I can’t find enough workers, nor can my competition and every other company within 400 miles of me! How is that a bad economy?!
The Bent One got a lot of traction from a downturn in early 1992. I can only hope Herself will not be so fortunate.
the only thing wrong with the economy is the drive-bys lying about how bad it is, too many government regulations and restrictions, and taxes still too high and socialistic.
4.9% economic growth is sluggish?
We know what the deal is here, dont we? Remember ‘92? When klinton/owlgore and their PR branch, the MSM claimed we were in the “worst economy in 50 years?” And then in ‘00 when they claimed the economy was the best in history?
In fact, the economy was growing at over 4% when Bush1 left office, compared to less than 1/2 of 1% when klinton/owlgore left.
and any one thinks that the democrats would IMPROVE things?
No kidding. What kind of idiot would think a Democrat could do anything positive for the economy. The want to raise taxes which will put the brakes on the economy for sure. We’ll have less spending and rising unemployment. Yup, the Democrats are a great alternative!!!
Corporate Leaders Upbeat on Economy (Where’s the Doom?)

REWRITE:
Democrat candidates could be in big trouble in 2008 if the strong U.S. economy continues on its path of growth.
When America wins, democrats lose.
