The economic rebound, which the media will accrue 100% to Obama and ObamaCare, plus the GOP’s betrayal of their base on immigration, may well cause White voters to stay home this fall, and see the Senate remain with a Democrat majority.

What “economic rebound”?? The labor force lost another 800,000 workers, marking the lowest U.S. labor participation rate since 1978, and first quarter GDP “growth” was an amysmally miserable 0.1% (yes, that’s POINT one percent) and our economy is on the brink of dropping to #2 in the world (behind communist China) for the first time since 1872. The economic data is all being fudged to look better than it really is and I don’t know of one person right now, including leftists, who think we’re in the midst of a booming economy. Do you??

The difference between +.1% and anything negative is so infinitesimal that the margin of error puts negative growth not just as a possibility, but a probability, given the propensity of this admin to fudge the numbers to keep themselves from looking bad.
