You hit the nail on the head...economic issues-big one trade...my hubby said when McCain went not once but three times to Michigan and said the jobs were not coming back...then during the campaign talked of re-training that it was over for McCain...re-training is a dirty word here because re-train for what? The health sector? Tech-moving jobs overseas hand over fist.
Obomba didn't say much, either, but it was effective. He said, first, Bush's Fault (naturally), and, second, he was going to "re-negotiate" NAFTA. Re-negotiate, eh? How? In what way? Never said, and the MSM sure didn't ask. But it was enough. The presstitutes ran with it and the sheeple bought it, and Obomba was in.
