Were it not for people dropping out of the labor force, the unemployment rate would be well over 10%.

Romney should be pointing this out, especially that by this measure it has been over 10% over the past three years. From what I've seen, he will.

BTW, wasn't this participation rate adjustment Clinton's idea?

Anyone smell a setup? 0bambi puts out these bogus numbers and when they have to be “adjusted” to the correct numbers, it will be Romney’s fault that unemployment goes up.
