The "stimulus" has run dry, Obama's not gotten his new "stimulus" and he blames Republicans for stalling the economy for the benefit of the 1%.
How can he have it both ways? Either the Republicans can claim credit for reviving a dead Obama economy and his plans were what kept the economy from reviving in the first place or nothing done makes a hill of beans difference.
If it's a "recovery" and not an anomaly, the press will help him spin it as being a slower recovery because of the Republicans.
I agree with other comments - Republicans should not expect a certain high level of unemployment and bad economic news for fall 2012. Anything that remotely hints at good news will be magnified into the greatest expansion in all of human history.

Exactly. Basing our hopes for Obama’s defeat on a bad economy is just playing into their hands. He can, and should, be defeated for far more serious reasons than a sputtering economy. The man has been trying to lead us to his perception of a socialist utopia. Whether with good intentions or bad, that’s the direction the campaign against him should take.
Bigger government or smaller government. That’s the choice facing us, and Obama is clearly not in the smaller government camp.
