Whistling past the graveyard.
Seems like I read recently (sure wish I had the link) that no president has been reelected when the unemployment rate was over 7%.
Hey nobama, guess what? Mr.Poof can spread all the fairy dust you want. Won’t change YOUR unemployment rate one bit.
Not really. After all, it's the government that makes up the numbers. (and I DO mean "makes up") Just watch what they do to the CPI formula as part of the debt ceiling deal.....Inflation??....What inflation....
Unemployment won’t be key? Rest assured that it will be for the unemployed. And, I suspect for the families and many, many friends of the unemployed.
Whistling past the graveyard.
“The average American does not view the economy through the prism of GDP or unemployment rates or even monthly jobs numbers,” Plouffe said, according to Bloomberg. “People won’t vote based on the unemployment rate, they’re going to vote based on: ‘How do I feel about my own situation? Do I believe the president makes decisions based on me and my family?’ ”
So about 10% of them will say “I’m unemployed” and another 10-15% (or more!) will say “I am qualified for a much better job but no one is hiring”
Then - according to Plouffe - they will say “But Obama’s got my back - I can’t wait to vote for him again”
What fantasy world is this guy living in?
This guy is delusional. I guess he has no clue that GDP and the unemployment rate directly affect people. True, people may not say, "I'm not voting for nobama because the unemployment rate is 9%." But people will most certainly say, "I'm not voting for nobama because I can't find a job and my house is in foreclosure."
Why would this keep the unemployment rate low? How many people quit a job before they have another one? Talk about grasping at straws.

Cheers!
Fluffy is whistling past the graveyard.
The Won is toast.
When’s the last time any of us saw someone HAPPY since The Usurper took office?
I know a lot of unemployed people. Never did before.
I am under-employed. Gave up half my business. There was no point continuing.
I am happy to be making less, and feeding fewer taxes to The Beast.
Starve The Beast.
Elect the most Conservative person on the ballot.
Rinse, Lather, Repeat, for as long as it takes to get the commies out of our government. RINOs and dems. Get ‘em out.
This guy is outstanding!
Gosh damn WISHFUL THINKING.
Methinks that David ‘I am a libtard/progressive KoolAid drinking idiot’ Plouffe needs to do more than put down the pitcher of KoolAid...the idiot needs to put down the crack pipe, as well.
Be assured, this will be a referendum of the AnointedIdiot, but also be assured, I don’t care how many billions the AnointedIdiot raises, he will be a one term POS, errrr, POTUS. =.=
Must be planning on starting another war. Maybe the french this time, he can handle them
Obama needs more advisers like this guy.
I imagine the price of food or gas or war with Syria will have their attention too...
“David Plouffe said Wednesday that people won’t vote in 2012 based on the unemployment rate.”
David Plouffe please pick up the courtesy phone, a Mr. James Carville is on the line for you.
Can Ploufe - no, strike that - can ANYONE really be that stupid?
He could be right. People might vote based on the heartless bastard sending guns to Mexico to kill innocent children. The investigation is ongoing.
To paraphrase a VP candidate from some years ago...(in regards to Reagan and President Dick)
